I Believe A Steemit Charity Challenge Of Some Kind Would Help Raise Steemit Awareness And Raise Much Needed Funds For Charity.

My suggestion is a 19-day Himalayan trek to Everest base camp through some of the world’s most stunning mountain scenery to raise funds for a charity of the communities choosing.

MOUNT EVEREST'S BASE CAMP:

-Mount Everest’s base camp is at an elevation of 18,000 feet (5,500 meters)—at this altitude you are already higher than the highest peaks in Europe.

-Against this backdrop would be a great place to raise the blue Steemit flag against theworld’s bluest sky!

Get treading those mountains @mindhunter

(any kind of cancer research has my vote!)

Me too! - Anti-cancer 2-0!

...currently ordering a 'How To Make Your Own Will' kit on Amazon!

Nice idea. Nice sky.

Thanks Philip.

P.S. Do drop me your charity of choice too??

Anything to do with animals.

YIPPEE! $0.01c - I can now pass my lucky cent to the bus driver and hope for a free ride to the airport!

A fun idea, mindhunter. But let´s do the less grand ideas as well. Just funding charity in any way would be great.
I suggest that we make a fundraiser for GiveDirectly ,as they are an awesome charity, working with direct cash transfers, which is the most effective for of charity.

I think the $0.01 cents tells us we won't ever make it to the airport! Ha ha! I think a SteemStarter campaign site would be good though - kinda like Kickstarter! - therein lies another post!

SteemStarter sounds like an excellent idea @mindhunter

Steemstarter - sounds like a good post!
