I’m a 31-year-old Male with a passion for Marketing, Crypto and helping people.
I’m currently in The Philippines for a few months work; when I go for a walk each morning, I see homeless kids sleeping on the street. I grew up in a first world country, so this is a shock to see.
There was a specific bunch of boys that I would see often sleeping literally on the side on the road, in arm's length from cars and motorbikes flying past all night.
After seeing these boys in the same place for a few days, I decided to take action, buy them breakfast and learn a little about their situation.
Long story short, they loved some Jollibee for breakfast!
That night I lost a lot of sleep thinking about their situation, how did they end up there, why are their options, etc.… I decided the best next move was to buy them some necessary things like shoes & socks, backpacks, etc.
(Steemit upvotes paid for their gifts)
Homeless kids are nothing new. Unfortunately, this happens all around the globe and effects a tremendous amount of kids right now! What is new is the ability for anyone to help via innovative Crypto/Blockchain solutions like Steemit.
It blows my mind that we live in a world where a community like Steemit can raise money and make a change by literally clicking a button. Thanks Steemit for making this possible.
I figured this post would be an excellent introduction to the Steemit community as it shows I intend to use this platform for good.
How you can help
- I would love to hear your thoughts on how a Crypto/Blockchain solutions can empower people like you and me to solve world issues. I’m steering towards this being my next project.
- Follow, Upvote, etc.. :)
welcome to steem it and have fun!

Let us review: I posted you a heads up that you were commenting to a comment spamming account. Apparently you didn't comprehend that I wasn't attacking you, quite the opposite. You then downvoted me and posted a smart ass response containing "mind your language" rather than thanking me for the heads up.
Now you and your other account @desikaamukkahani have implemented downvote abuse.
Either clean up your act and remove all those worthless downvotes against me or I will choose either to report both accounts for flag/downvote abuse which won't go well for these two accounts or vote away any of your present and future earnings.

Yes, this is very sad and upsetting. But there is two big problems, that no one is addressing. Firstly, those kids didn't come from space, some one made them and then either abandoned them, or the system took their parents from them. Secondly, those kids are homeless, because there is 1% that's hording all the wealth of this world. As long as we allow that to happen, there will be more and more of these kids, including the so called first world kids. No amount of your goodness will fix that and, while, sure, you're getting warm fuzzy feeling, nothing changes, and that's exactly what the rich and apathetic want, maintain the status quo, they get richer and don't give a shiet and you, relatively poor person, pour your heart and hard earned money for futile cause. I would rather see a solution based causes, like how about create a fund to finance some very smart people to take down the monsters and even out the plain field. You know, the old concept of take from the rich and give to the poor. We all love Robin Hood, we all champion him all the fictional figures like him, but no one wants to actually step up and do the right thing. Lets mot forget, Robin Hood was an outlaw, a criminal in the eyes of the "law". After all we all know what the right thing is. Educate people about the corruption of the world, do not participate in the corrupt system, and I mean, really, do not participate, do not feed the beast, among other things.
©Of course that's just my opinion and I could be wrong :)
