Calling all redfish!


@mountainjewel are holding a competition to win a delegation of 200 SP. While this is my entry and I encourage anyone with less than 500 SP to enter and may the most deserving one win!

So to enter @mountainjewel wants to know, what would you do if you had 5000 SP?

For those who might not have read our introduction post, the ethos of @life-relearnt is that basic needs and education should not cost and should be accessible to all. In addition to this, all life on this planet is sacred and free and should stay that way.

I hope that the scope of the project will expand in time to encompass ecological regeneration and off grid living opportunities for people from all walks of life. Maybe even escape and recovery for addicts and others struggling with living in the system.

This is a long way off that though, so at the moment we are supporting other causes already doing the hard graft to make a change in this world. At the moment we are upvoting and fundraising when we can for:

@familyprotection: who are working hard to keep families from being torn apart.
@SchoolForSDG4: which provides education and food for impoverished children in Bangladesh.
Kahn Academy: which provides free education online across the world.
@YouAreHOPE: which sends funds to projects across the world trying to make life better in their area.

So what would we do if we had 5000 SP? Well, we would put it into curation for the projects and causes we support and we could support even more of them than we currently are. It would also be great to add more to this platform by being a curator who could make a difference on great, but undervalued content. After all, as this platform grows @curie, @blocktrades and indeed all the other curators working hard on here can't reach everything. Too many amazing contributors leave because the reward is not worth the hours they've put into sharing their knowledge and this needs to be remedied. After all, knowledge is education and should be freely shared.

Although we don't post a lot at the moment, we try to make sure to vote daily and comment where appropriate when we have the time. So I vow that if we win the delegation it will be put to good use. For full disclosure, we do self vote as many of our posts are fundraisers and we want to get as much as we can for the causes we value.

Thank you @mountainjewel for taking the time to read our entry and thank you for the opportunity to put ourselves forward for the delegation.
