voronoi (70) in steemitpark • 8 years ago (edited)

Fellow Steemians,

Last week was an amazing week for Steemit Park! We landed 4 incredible sponsors and several other generous donations. If you're still interested in supporting - there's plenty of time! Bench / Planter sponsors have until June 23rd (next Friday) to donate.

We're gearing up for a busy few weeks! For those who just discovered this post - the design-build project is called STEEMIT PARK (link here) ... Currently, we're in the process of fundraising and will begin fabrication this week! In order to make this project a reality we need your upvotes and STEEM / SBD donations (no matter how big or small) Here's a little bit more about the project and the awards that we're offering (below).

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. We hope that you will consider supporting :D

Thank You Bench / Planter Sponsors!

We want to give a HUGE shout out to @andrarchy, @surfermarly, @fulltimegeek and @dylanhobalart.

We are thrilled to have your support and so excited to have such awesome furniture sponsorship in Steemit Park! This week we're doing some mock-ups for bench / planter signage and wanted to share the progress thus far. (See below.) If you have a QR code scanner app on your phone, give it a shot! Each QR code provides a link to that sponsor's Steemit profile page. The pop-up Park (located in Brooklyn) will have tens of thousands of visitors this summer. Your name will be on display! That's a lot of exposure!

Good For Community, Good for Steemit

This new neighborhood hotspot in the heart of Brooklyn will act as a colorful and dynamic billboard for the Steemit community. We @hitheryon believe that this physical design project is an important and exciting proof of concept for STEEM and Steemit. We want to build something physical, lasting and impactful with cryptocurrency. Tens of thousands of people will visit Steemit Park this summer. Our team @hitheryon will host Steemit workshops and events for the purpose of onboarding community members and activists to the Steemit platform (this includes park visitors, park representatives, volunteers, local residents and more!)

Upvotes and donations will translate directly to funding for furniture, events, park maintenance, beautification and restoration for a neighborhood in need. This project is about discovering new ways of using STEEM and Steemit for social good!

Let’s Do This

Let’s get physical and take this online community to the next level. We need YOUR upvotes, donations, re-steems and word of mouth to spread this project far and wide.

NOTE : 100% of the payout rewards from this post will go towards the realization of the Steemit Park project. Thank you all so much for your support. STEEM on!
