Philanthro-Bee #2 Update - Donated Funds Raised to Evan's Bank Account
Time for some updates on Philanthro-Bee #2, an initiative organized by @skatehive community member @stickchumpion!
This time we raised funds for Evan, a skateboarder from Tokoroa, Waikato who recently suffered a stroke and has now been diagnosed with Leukaemia. Thanks to the Hive community we raised $50 worth of Hive tokens and a few days ago we sent that money to Evans bank account.
More specifically we raised
- $41 worth of Hive tokens (post rewards)
- 8 HBD as donations
- $1 worth of Hive engine tokens
How we donated the money
Evans GoFundMe was no longer active so we couldn't convert those Hive to FIAT and donate directly! What we did was to send those tokens to @stickchumpion's wallet, Stix converted them to FIAT and transfered them to his brother in law bank account (Glenn). Glenn rounded up the ammount to $80 NZ Dollars and transfered them to Evan's bank account!
Judging from Evan's message to Glenn (Stick's brother in law) he really appreciated this move!
We wish Evan the best and we thank you all for your support, donations and love you showed in Philanthro-Bee #2! Philanthro-Bee Edit #3 coming soon?!? What do you think @stickchumpion?
Why Philanthro-Bee?
The Skateboarding community is one of the strongest communities out there and Skatehive is no exeption. Few things feel better than helping a fellow skateboarder in tough times and thanks to internet and Hive blockchain we were able to do this and we will be doing this again.
We at Skatehive know we are for the long term and for the community and that is the crux of the matter, community . We can make money though our upvotes and our community so why not expand that into the greater skate community by donating to skate related causess?
Thank you all for supporting the very first "Philanthro-bee" and if you like helping fellow skaters out stay tuned cause @stickchumpion is already on the lookout for the next skate-related cause we're gonna donate to!
