Are you ready steemians?
When I first met 
Hive account@girlbeforemirror and 
Hive account@azurejasper, it was about nine months ago when I was running the Tattoo Story Contest here on steemit. At first Hive account@girlbeforemirror was an entrant, but eventually she took over running the contest for a little bit. Though friendships on steemit do not always stay as close as one may hope, I have always appreciated Hive account@girlbeforemirror and Hive account@azurejasper.
Recently, when Hive account@azurejasper posted about the heath issues and medical bills that Hive account@girlbeforemirror was facing, the community stepped in with upvotes and donation posts to help fill in some of the financial needs that they are having. However, there are still financial needs that remain.
The Need & The Challenge
After talking to Hive account@azurejasper in private, it seems that roughly $2000 is still needed to cover the current bills that they are facing. @Papa-pepper thinks that although this is a large amount for a couple to deal with, it should be very little for our community to take care of.
Therefore, I am officially challenging the steemit community to a duel.
I am prepared to match every donation that you guys can give, up to a total USD value of $1250. I will personally match every SBD and STEEM donated to the wallet of Hive account@azurejasper up to a total USD value of $1250. If the community is able to donate $1250, then we should be able to bless Hive account@girlbeforemirror and Hive account@azurejasper with $2500 to finish taking care of their current needs and expenses.

So, I wonder who will win this duel. Will the combined effort of the community be able to outgive 
Hive account@papa-pepper? If you can donate the equivalent of $1251 USD, then you win (and so does Hive account@girlbeforemirror and Hive account@azurejasper). However, if I still have more that I am willing to donate than the steemit community does, then I win. (I think that we should all be able to win in the end, but just for some friendly competition, let's see how this goes!)
