Support Nepal - support a charity minded Steemian
Hi guys, thanks for all that helped supporting charity cases and people in need during the last three weeks. In Week 4 of Charity Weekly I would like to help a guy the core Steemians will probably meet at Steemfest - please check out the profile and work of .
All liquid SBDs this posts generates will be transferred to him accordingly. Feel free to donate to him or consider at least some Upvotes or Resteems. He will for sure discuss some ideas in Lisbon soon with you guys anyway!
Here a quote from one of his posts - hope cheetah is not minding that one (The following is a quote summary):
"For most of the past year, the thoughts of doing some volunteer work in Nepal has been on my mind, and having recently finished an I.T. contract at the United Nations in Spain, I'm now free from the 9-5 grind and ready to pursue something that holds more meaning. This would be to offer my time and skills in a place where I would see a direct impact.
Working for one of the world's biggest 'charities' sounds great, but sitting behind a desk supporting the systems that support the people in offices, who support the people on the ground, who bring aid to the people in need, just felt a little too far from the action to me.
Last year, my girlfriend ( ) spent some time at a Children's Home in Nepal, and the passion in which she describes it has made me interested and eager to do the same. This sounds like a great way to have a positive impact on people's lives and may indeed be something that could fill my soul with joy and satisfaction in that i'd been useful during my time here on earth.
So as it stands, this November we will be heading to this children's home to continue and expand on the work Sylvia and other kind volunteers have done in donating their own skills, time, and funds."
