Community Purpose

Campus Connect is originated as a community for the international student community. We believe that we can connect all college students around the whole world under a single platform here on the steemit blockchain. We will be sharing ideas, knowledge, and creativity, culture, and educational knowledge from around the globe.

Campus Connect is designed to interact with different students from universities around the world, campus connect will become home to thousands of students worldwide who are looking to interact and socialize with students from other parts of the world. They can share and post almost anything on campus as long as their content will appeal to and promote the steemit blockchain.

We also want to penetrate universities all over the world via steemit social feature as a tool to do that. We want to recruit serious-minded steemians from all over the world, this step will eventually serve as a means to introduce steemit to different universities worldwide. We aim to educate and support each member of campus connect in any way we can. Leveraging the numbers and activity of students worldwide, we can create a very powerful community for students.

How Unique is Campus Connect
Campus Connect is one of a kind community and actually the first of its kind to be created ever on the steemit blockchain. We are very different in our approach and aim to introduce college students to the world of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.

We are dedicated to our goal and ready to do something no other community on steemit has ever done before. Promote campus connect in all the Universities across the world and maintain a sustainable community filled with young and great minds.

Does your community have a strong enough message to attract people to Steem?

We believe our message as a community appeals to every single audience we are targeting, first campus connect community is more than just a community, it is a family of students and a big opportunity for newbies in the blockchain industry and old ones alike.

The idea of a pool of students all over the world isn't only intriguing but exciting for all whom we have shared and asked to join us. We see our community aim as the perfect to way to get as many people on campus to sign up on steemit since they will have a sense of belonging knowing they are interacting with fellow students on this new platform(Steemit).
