First I want to tell you a little story about what happened to me many months ago on Steemit.
Like so many others, I was brand new, figuring things out over time and starting to feel that my content was pretty good. After a couple months of working hard on my posts, I was getting a little rattled by the lackluster response. Just by happenstance, I ended up chatting a little bit with @knozaki2015 who gave me some supportive words, a few suggestions and a five dollar 'tip'. THIS BLEW ME AWAY and was an instant boost.
I received a 5 Steem Dollar tip for what I had already been doing. I was elated for days after this, reinvigorated to continue putting in that time and effort. This is something that has stuck with me during my time here and can't forget. (Thank you again @knozaki2015!)
I found a post later on where I found how this had been a coordinated initiative (I forget the name) to seek out and reward people who were just in my spot....been here for a while, persistent, with lots of effort. Knowing the effect it had on me, imagine that happening to dozens or hundreds other others that were in my same spot.
What I Propose and what I need Help with
I want to give out 100-200 Steem (or SD's) starting tomorrow, over the week (ends following Sunday.)
Each person giving prizes is allocated five 5-Steem tips. We reach more categories with more independent searches than just my own. I plan on 4-8 (often smaller, maybe struggling users) helpers to give these out.
I'm donating 100 Steem(or SD's) to get things started this week. I believe distributing 200 Steem (or SD) is obtainable over the week, IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO MATCH ME.
Any further donations can be used to fund future weeks to continue this project. This is something that when funded (up to 200 Steem/SD a week) we'll get those tips out to reinvigorate struggling but good users, helping to retain them.
100% Steem Dollars from this post will also be used towards funding this same pool.
When unfunded, it can just sit idle and be ok. It's quick and easy to pick up again on a smaller scale like this.
I will keep track of who gets what (through wallet memos) and from who to make sure it is fully transparent. I plan for 100% of donated funds to be given away as 'tips.'
[UPDATE: I've already given two users 25 Steem each to begin giving out the tips to those who have been putting in the work, but haven't reaped the rewards. I'll get the remainder handed out over the next two days.]

I'll have the list after the fact of people the tips were given to. But that's something I'll just re-engineer from the wallet memos. I'm giving it all to other people to distribute.
However, I did want to go through the people that were subtly asking in comments of this post. See who might be a good candidate.

Great Idea @sykochica! I must admit as a new user it is a struggle. I did an experiment on when to post to increase value that I conducted for over a week and spent a lot of time on and the result yielded around 230 upvotes, but none of the curators had much SP so it was very undervalued. I even made the top 20 undervalued posts. The minnows need some encouragement, thats for sure.

That's really cool of you. I have already been tipped by two others: 10 Steem and one SBD, this month. This has never happpened in my five years over on bitcointalk. My contribution apart from my posts is a site that allos you to pay for downloads with SBD www.steemfiles.com . SBD does not track the USD very well.
I have a user amount of SP. I guess there are many that need money more than I do. Tips are always welcome and appreciated.

Reading this kind of post from Steemians with history and large followings is very encouraging. I haven't been here long but spend a lot of time trying to get a message of truth out. I believe I've done ok in 2 weeks getting a small following of 120ish but would appreciate any save advice that helps me get to the next level of influence. $ are nice but education is paramount.
Please consider taking a look at my blog at @tremendospercy as any criticism good or bad would be greatly appreciated.

This seems like a good initiative. To me it seems like certain types of posts are always voted up while other types are usually ignored. For instance, I love to write fiction but those types of posts are mostly ignored...... however blog posts and human interest pieces usually catch support, not to mention anything about steem or cryptocurrency. I would love to see wider support for more types of content.

I'm a struggling user myself. How will you choose who gets the prize?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

To start it'll be geared to target users at least 3 to 4 weeks. I won't be passing things out myself (unless it becomes necessary) instead letting 4-8 people each search out five people to give the tip to.
What I will suggest to them is to subjectively look for consistent effort, quality,and/or sometimes mass improvement. Outside of trying to limit multiple tips being given to the same person...this will be a rather unbound choosing system.
However I do/will look at everybody's blog that receives a tip.
I didn't want to make this overly-complicated at the start.

Awww, I appreciate the offer to donate...but I usually recommend for newer, smaller users to just hold on to their money to help build themselves up. If you really really want to donate though, I won't stop you and will put it to good use.
As for suggestions:
I see you're really new here, so welcome to Steemit! I'd recommend making an introduction post about yourself using the tags #introduce and #introduceyourself (the other three tags can be what you want that are applicable.) You may want to take a look at what some others have done to get an idea of which of these have done better.
Make sure to include at least one picture (which is used for a thumbnail) and let us know about you, what your interests are, what you think you'll be posting about and anything else you'd like to share. :)

Upvoted for the idea, and in particular, the link to https://www.steemithelp.net.
I just joined Steemit, having spent time on Quora answering questions (20k+views my first real week using it), but after a few weeks lost interest because of the lack of payout. Without creating courses or marketing other material, it wasn't worth the time commitment.
This seems like the place that has the best of both worlds - relevant activity and actual rewards for great content. Thanks for the resources!

Oh nice! Welcome!
I definitely think you'll find that great 'middle ground' of activity, intelligence people and the monetization.
Feel free to shoot me questions about this place if any come to mind for you. Happy to help out. :)

Exactly! I was asked my another user for some specific things that I learned that helped me improve and needed to think a bit on that one.
I just made this post on some strategies for getting more votes that might be helpful in the meantime. :)

@sykochica You are an angel. This is a kind initiative. I am one of those struggling but I am not seeking SBD but readers and followers, and the SBD will then take care of itself! I have put out some great content and was excited for people to see it and was surprised that so many had not. That...is pretty discouraging. But I suppose I will find a niche. I will keep doing what I'm doing because I love it here and I love to write and express what's on my mind or share something of interest. But, yeah kudos to you and all of those who have pledged to help you with this initiative.

That's very kind of you! I was recently given my major first tip of $16.23 and I'm gonna split it all up and find some hard working new steemians to tip it too. I wanna maximise the positive energy from that generosity. This post is actually a great reminder to do that so off I go. Thanks sharing!
