Do you like free SBD? Do you like helping life-saving charities? All for the cost of an upvote and a comment...

Yes folks, it's competition time again. This feed has been a bit too depressing lately and far too much about me and my problems so lets try to spread some love and save some lives.

I used to run daily competitions before but this time around I'm not giving all the SBD away, I'm donating 25% to a good cause (scroll down to read more). Terms etc are below but the short and sweet is, upvote this post ($0.05 or 50% VP min) and comment a number between 1 and 49 (inclusive).

I'm not sure how often I'll be able to post up these competitions but I'll try to do as many as possible since it's all for a good cause!

  • To enter you must upvote this post and comment with a number between 1 and 49.

I have a special respect for this charity as I've been airlifted by them twice. If anyone would like to make a donation to them you can via their website or if you would like to donate Steem then I'll take the donation, exchange it to GBP and donate it on your behalf.

Each and every mission they fly costs roughly £2'500 and on average they fly 3 missions per day. This costs £2.5 million every year.

They can reach anywhere in the 2 counties within 20 minutes and have a patient to the nearest hospital within 8 minutes. I'd tell you more but both times I've flown in one I've been strapped to a board!

Sort:  

Voting with 100% but my VP is way low, so please add my teeny bit to the prize money! hehehe I'll resteem this for you!

Joy is contagious! :)

(by the way - our oldest son was airlifted before! what an experience. you've been airlifted TWICE??? what's the story on that! )

Don't forget to pick a number - the prize will be drawn in 2 days!

Look at this post!!! It's gained momentum! Hooray!!!!
Ok - I would love to choose 34! That's my hubby's special number :)

However, if it wins - put that back into the pot for this wonderful charity please!!!!!
Thank you for making steemit a lovelier place :)

Great idea! It's always nice to give back to those who helped you :) my number is 15

Indeed, I owe them a lot and helping others is helping me stay positive during a rough time, odd how that works!

I go with 31.

Very generous support from you @pennsif. I can't fudge the numbers (I'm too good at making uncheatable systems, curse me!) but I'm secretly rooting for you! You help lots of people, myself included!

Good luck with it all !
