Hello Gang,
I have been wanting to do a giveaway to pay it forward to the STEEMIT community as you all have contributed in different ways to my small success.
As I have got to meet more people in the community I have seen a strong network of people wanting to see each other succeed in becoming whales. Under any other conditions I would not wish for my friends to become whales but in this context, it's a good thing. I get really excited telling my friends about Steemit I am sure may of you feel the same way and work to share it with the world.
The Giveaway

Must be level 55 or less and have 3,000 steem power or less.
The Winners!!!
36 hours after the giveaway has started I will upload a proof of vote video that shows me putting the name of every valid entry into the hat for the drawing. Three names will be chosen for SBD prizes that will be deposited to your wallet within 48 hours after winners are posted.
