ScholarsPH Blog #2: First Allowance Awarded to Myke πŸ’–

in #myfundition β€’ 6 years ago (edited)

Community support has been very overwhelming.

It has only been 10 days since the account was created but we already got 30+ resteems and 200+ human upvotes. We've also received over 20 STEEM in donations and $70+ worth of monthly pledges. These are just partial and unofficial numbers, and it keeps growing by the day.

On behalf of our first student, Myke, and all the future students that will be supported through this project, we offer our sincerest thanks πŸ’–

Everything happened so fast that we're finding it hard to keep up πŸ˜… But that's the most wonderful problem to have at this point. I published this post as a mini-update but we'll prepare a more detailed post in the next coming days after comprehensive discussion and planning. Our next post will highlight:

  • Funding received thus far, including a list of people who offered monthly pledges.
  • Recalibration and expansion of the project goals since the original target will soon be exceeded.

Part of @scholarph's support program is to provide monthly stipends to each student. The estimated annual total of $220 presented in our project details post will be divided to 10 or 11 months which will be awarded to the student at each month's first week.

We are happy to announce that we've reached our very first milestone.

Our initial target was to reach $20 of funds at the least so we can provide a month's allowance to our first scholar, Myke. We were anticipating a minimum of three weeks worth of posting to reach that goal but we achieved it in a few days!



Myke has received his first of many monthly allowances today.

He now has enough money to buy his chef's attire required for practicum.

Thank you to everyone who supported him and the project.

You guys are really awesome for making this happen. We've seen several Steemians promoting the project on their own and spreading the word. Then, we'll be surprised by the number of people reaching out to us and asking about the project. I don't like to make a habit of mentioning people, especially since I'm bound to miss some genuinely nice people who supported us in one way or another. But I'll make an exception this time.

Special shoutouts to @pennsif, @lovebooster, @yanzel4lyf, @macoolette, @pifc and everyone at @tagalogtrail discord for being amazing and for all your kind ways.😊

Thank you and Mabuhay!

Indeed, achieving the target fund happened very fast. That is how supportive people are for good and selfless intentions.

Congratulations to everyone who laid a hand or two on this project - the organizers, supporters and sponsors alike!

And of course, congratulations to Myke. May you serve as inspiration to your fellow youth!

Thank you for posting this in the pifc contest post.

I'll happy to sponsor 1 SBI or 1 STEEM each week for people to "earn it" for this project:

We've seen several Steemians promoting the project on their own and spreading the word.

Can you think of an idea, such as a contest, that the purpose is not to win for themselves but to win for the benefit of this project?

Wow! That's the generous you springing up again. Every ready to help... Thank you!

You have a great idea of coming up with a contest for this project. The concept of pifc where we direct people to someone else's post can be a starting point. We just have to tweak it a little bit. How about directing people to this account's blog and you match whatever amount of support they extend to it? I am not sure though, that may be costly in the long run.

Let's think more about it and who knows, the brightest idea will suddenly pop up.

I am thinking in terms of events like walk-a-thon where people sponsor walkers at so much $ per mile and the money goes to the cause or charity.

So, this will be "blogging for scholarsPH" fund raising:

  • s/he who is able to give can sponsor or co-sponsor, and
  • s/he who is not able to give STEEM or SBD blog and resteem for scholarsPH

You can come up with the idea or topic for the contest and it'll be your contest that I'll sponsor or co-sponsor.

@macoolette and @freedomshift from the team and the volunteers in our discord community we are really thankful on the support that you are giving to our project. We are really overwhelmed on it.

If there is something that we can do to help let us know too.

We are happy to help.

The idea of a contest, "blogging for scholarsPH", is to get more people involved.

Even if those who don't have the resources to give - they can give their time, raise awareness, and spread the word.

See? You have great ideas! Event outside of Steemit did not even cross my mind. Let me think about it, or maybe even ask around for more suggestions, including the execution. πŸ‘

you match whatever amount of support they extend to it

Let's start with 1 STEEM or SBD each week and see if people will join.

Ahhh... I was thinking out loud without considering the details. I am not used to hosting contest online so let me think about the execution. Just reserve that 1 Steem or SBD for every week because I already casted your pledge on stone. πŸ€”

Crazy awesome support. Thanks to you and everyone else who supported us!
And to top it all, Myke seems genuinely happy for the assistance. I feel it will drive him further to do his best despite difficult circumstances.

Thank you for being part of the project.

It is my pleasure to be part of the project. 😊

Wow, this is a great project. ❀ Keep it up. Thanks for all of the support.

Yehey! Congrats isko! @scholarsph. Natutuwa ako para sa inyo at kay myke!

Maraming salamat din po sa support @czera hindi namin magagawa ito ng walang suporta mula po sa inyo.

Congrats sa ating lahat! At naging daluyan tayo ng pagpapala ng Lord. Hopefully we can give more to them at hindi lang baon ang ma cover natin. Pati din tuition sa future.

From little things, big things grow. Keep doing the little things that can change the world and make it a better place.

100% agree with you. It's tiny ripples now but the impact will be tremendous in the future. Especially for Myke's case. Through the project, we are enabling him to have the skills to start his career.

Thank you for the support!
