@flysky #1
I apply for Anamaria to get this great gift.
They are big family in war tourn area.
They worked hard to keep family together.
It would help great deal for them to have new laptop because they would bring so many new members to steemit to enrich our community
My support to Anamarija 's family.
Thank you for support
@anikearn #2
I want to help everyone like them.I am in Bangladesh. I am a student. I am very poor. My father has a small business. That is why we are very busy with our business.I do not have a laptop and I use steemit on mobile. I really want to use steemit with laptop. There are many poor people in the place where I live. They do not eat. I really want them to help.I am very poor myself, but I like their ability to help them. I want to help them earn from steemit. So I need a laptop. Thanks a lot to Sir @dobartim for encouraging me and helping
Here is my post

This is my fiance who has been struggling for finance for a long time now. Despite his genorous mindset, he has been limited a little of late due to low income and sacking from work because of the economic situation in Nigeria that is causing it. I will be so glad if I can win this and give him the prize to establish himself. He has a lot of ideas but the money to execute it has not been there. I hope I win so as to give him a surprise. Thank you @dobartim for this great feat of giving back to the society
@baboyed1000 #4
This is my brother that i introduced to @steemit a month ago @okelala16. However, his complaint has been his inability to get a laptop to get himself acquainted to the platform. Despite my effort because i was also sacked from workplace, it has been very difficult. I will surely donate it to him if i win and i hope i win. Thank you @dobartim
@lizzieharrison #5
Thank you very much @dobartim for this extended love to humanity. It's really a welcome initiative and first of it kind I've seen here on Steemit.
I am 3 weeks old today on steemit. Cheers to me!
This is a lovely picture of my myself, my first cousin, second cousin and my beautiful mother at the end of the photo. My first cousin is a graduate who is still unemployed but into a small scale business. My second cousin is a struggling student who happens to carter for herself. She got robbed of her gadgets at gun point in her school. I have preached the gospel of Steemit to both of them but they are lacking gadgets to help them blog and stay with the community. If I am nominated for the donation, I'll give the laptop to one of them and the money will be shared amongst my mother and the cousin of mine whom did not get the laptop to get a gadget for themselves. I am proud to preach the gospel of steemit to people around me. I am a proud steemian.
@faisalazmi #6
First of all, I would like to thank @dobartim and all the donor for making this charity and helping this community to keep growing ;). He is my cousin, he joined Steemit since July 2017. He is the one who introduced me to this awesome platform steemit. He is currently a final semester student at University in Aceh, Indonesia. If I get a chance to win this competition, I want to help donate a laptop for him. Because it will really help him to create more contents here on Steemit and hopefully he can make some cash from it. He is very interested in the design and drawing art. as you can see on his Steemit account @amaliatul. Most of the contents he creates are about design and drawing art using smartphone. Sometimes he borrowed my laptop just to learn design, make his college assignments and create the steemit content. It can be said to be my gratitude to him for introducing me to Steemit andI really want to help him, but I also do not have much money because I am also a student. This competition is one way that I can help him. I believe the laptop will be so much useful for him to make some income and make a living.
Hvala ;)
@ewuoso #7
thanks @dobartim for these. Only few people on the platform can do what you are doing. It is very thoughtful of you to think about others and their needs. I will like to nominate a family member @gallantmayor. I introduced him to steemit and he has been struggling. i am sure he will be able to do better if he gets a laptop.
@gnomicrules #8
If I am fortunate to be the winner, I will donate the laptop to my very self since I have been struggling to get one on my own to help me in my school work because I have started my final year project in the University and I really need a laptop because of the different areas I am expected to do and also know like, simulation, optimization and other areas in the Engineering field and I always lag behind because I don't have a laptop for easy learning. And also in the steemit aspect, a lot of people have joined steemit through me in the space of one month that I joined but I can't really impact their lives as such because of lack of laptop for easy access. So if I'm fortunate to win I will donate it to myself and all the people I have introduced into steemit. Thank you very much @dobartim for this contest.
@jysui #9
If ever I would be chosen, I would donate the laptop to myself. Since forever I've tried to earn my own money to buy myself one, but when family needs pop out, I would not hesitate to give my money to them. For our food, for my my parents' and for other needs. That's why I am joining this contest so I could have atleast the slightest chance to get a laptop and use it for things like steemit, and use it for online jobs such as online teaching so I can further provide for my family
@vic-essien #10
Thank you @dobartim for this initiative.
I personally joined Steemit nearly two and half months ago and based on how the seem blockchain has affected my live positively, i took up the challenge of promoting steemit. The promotion has brought huge success. One of the individuals i brought to Steemit is highly intelligent which i believe will be of great asset to the Steemit Community in general. Her username is @dorkay but she is limited by lack of a device to be effective on Steemit. I used my device in helping her register on Steemit and she struggles in making post or comment except she visits the cyber cafe and this does not give her flexibility on Steemit. If a laptop is donated to her through this avenue, she will be effective on Steemit and I'm confident that we did be amazed of the outstanding positive contribution she will bring to the Steemit Community
@kazimyrex #11
First would like to thank @dorbatim for hosting the competition by adding to the steemit community in my picture is my little sister by my side am doing the competition for her cause she is about to entered the university and she will need a laptop to help her in her studies and assignment so if I win I will make she gets the laptop
@ysabelbencomo #12
She is my sister, her name is Chiquinquira Bencomo. She studies far from home, at Carabobo University. She is a new user of Steemit, but she does not have a laptop or cell phone, that makes it difficult for her to move easily in her studies and to be able to work on her publications within Steemit. She likes to write and make poems, if she had a lap, she could continue to grow in Steemit. We live in Venezuela and could hardly buy a lap to her. Please help her.
@arismunandar #13
I really need a lactop because I really want to teach my friends to play steemit. I only have a smartphone and with a smartphone it is very difficult to teach them. That's why I'm following this competition because I really need a lactop so I can be more active in teaching them how to play steemit. Thanks @dobartim for the competition that really helps people who need lactop.
@fonis #14
although i steem with my phone for now and don't have a laptop of my own but all i want now is to help my sister have a laptop cos she needs it for her final year project in school. This is really important to me and more than anything i'd really love to introduce her to steemit when she owns a laptop. A big thanks to @dobartim for giving me hope of achieving this goal this month.
@yssa #15
Hi Sir @dobartim, this is such a great way to help those who couldn’t afford to buy a Laptop, me, I have mine but my laptop had already small lines on the screen but still useable, so why bother buying a new one? This is not for me but for my Uncle he really needs one than me.He is my Uncle, Ariel Chris is his name (beside him is his mother). He really needs a laptop for his studies and sometimes he borrows mine to make a PowerPoint presentation in his school reports. He is now in 4th year College, takes up Bachelor of Education Major in Mathematics; he is good at numbers, really good! It’s really hard for him because going to the internet café cost a lot of money ,doing research and making projects. Sometimes I saw him crying because he runs out of money and his mother doesn’t have a job and his father is a fisherman. He is a jolly person and a frustrated singer but he does well in acting. He also wanted to be part of Steemit like me. Hope he will be given a chance to have a laptop thanks! More power to you!
@masterpiz #16
Hello
I really do not have a laptop, but I have a phone ,my sister does not have either,if I get this, I'll help her get one,so she'll do her school work and projects, and so she'll have a platform for steeming when I introduce her
Thanks @dobartim for this opportunity!
@prechi #17
Owkay.. @dobartim thanks so much for this opportunity. I've been on this platform for over 5 months and I know the great things steemit has got to offer! On this note, I'm nominating no other person but this my great friend whom I introduced to steemit a few months back but he's been lagging behind due to phone issues even though he's been doing great on his blog, but he obviously been missing alot! I'll be very glad if this opportunity will favour him so he can come and unfold all what he's got in him! I'll want him to get the laptop so he can unravel his talent on this platform and showcase himself and bring alot to the community! Thanks
@aamsteem #18
i am an active steemit user one month ago even though i already have an account in august ago .. at that time i really want to play steemit because already have account .. but i do not have smartphone or laptop to join and play here, because i am very I want to play steemit, I decided to save and buy a smartphone that is very cheap, because of limited costs, I was very jealous to see friends playing steemit using a laptop, but I am very sad, because until now I have not been able to have it .. but I do not want this happens to my brother, who is also very eager to play steemit by using his laptop, I really hope he can get it soon, and if I get it here, I will immediately give it to my brother to register and play right here together me and another friend. .and I as a new user really hope that my comments are not considered spam .. thank you ..
@riezalzulfa #19
family is very special to me, although I am far apart from them I love them very much, I want to give understanding what it is about steemit, but I need a lot of money to buy a laptop and phone it's hard.
@queenerica #20
I do hope I'm not spamming,but I really need this laptop I've been trying to save up for one but other stuffs keeps coming up and I've tried to do several things but I keep getting told I needed a PC to perform such action and my brother doesn't have a phone,if I get this laptop I can give my brother mine so he can finally join steemit thanks.

Good job @dobartim
Hey man @dobartim
You're doing a great work here, I vote for contestant #20.
Hope that settles it
Thank you so much for this good initiative of you Sir @dobartim, you'll surely help those who can't afford to buy a Laptop.
And for those who also donated, THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF YOU FOR HAVING A GOOD HEART, one person will be given a chance to fully explore #steemit and contribute and share what he got into this beautiful and amazing platform, while he/she enjoys he/she is also earning that would greatly help them financially!
Best of luck to all of the participants and best of luck also to me!
More power!
Thank you

To the winner all this is just a competition try to accept if we win or not, we keep trying, make the competition ink as the bond of brotherhood without knowing the difference, thanks for you @dobartim, may god reply all your good future, I participated in this competition just been happy, happy to know you
Thank you very much
I vote for @prechi #17
I choose #20 , she's the youngest of them all and I believe in the leaders of tomorrow
I think all contestant really need the laptop.
Maybe there should be consolation prizes for entries, because this rule of only donor really makes it hard for everyone
I choose #14
You are doing very good job for humanity ,keep it up ,i am also going to participate in this competition ,soon i will come back with progress
The general population who are genuine people are the general population who have been in circumstances of low rank. So they will enable the low rank to regardless of whether they rise. We require individuals like that.
Wow
It's a spam comments
The people who are true humans are the people who have been in situations of low rank. So they will help the low rank even if they rise. We need people like that. Not Donald trump.
Very good post👍
Nice Post
Hello @dobartim, this competition was meant to assist the winner get money to buy a laptop to empower his/her steemit journey.
Obviously, there isn't money to get the laptop reason why most of us entered for the competition. So how do we get the laptop when we don't have the money? Kindly review!
what do you want to say ?
It also makes me puzzled sir @prechi hehe hope sir @dobartim would clarify this one. :) Thank you sir @prechi.
I must to se proof
Yeah obviously, proof will come but after the winner must have gotten the money to buy the laptop!
Let's borrow money
Sir, I had a suggestion what if you'll be the one to buy or like order it Online then sends the Laptop to who will the winner of this competition. Coz it's really hard if we buy laptop that we don't have even cents now in our pockets hehe just a suggestion.
This is an amazing idea.
thanks sir @wajahatsardar :)
Well after all said, we just still have to vote. Thanks so much for the opportunity once again. As a contestant, and a donor, hope I can vote my entry?
@dobartim that wasn't added to the rules initially. It would have prepared the applicants on what is expected of him/her.
Secondly, the above donors with 1 sbd and more are just 11. How is it gonna be possible for the 11 of us to vote and win?? People were interested in coming to vote for their favourite but at the glance of seeing "Only donors can vote", they zoomed off.
Please @dobartim, they should be some reconsiderations pertaining to the voting rules and also winning rules. Thanks.
friend only donners has right to select which one is more needy so let them decide.
It should had been made clear before now.
you may checked the older donation competition.
This is my first time of getting into a competition like this. Checking older donation contest posts didn't occur to me.
From the start, the donors decide who is the winner.
A little more elaboration should be made in the next donation contest for the newbies who will join to understand you well Sir. I didn't understand the rules enough.
Good Work
@dobartim very good who always make a contest
Thanks
your post @dobartim is very good and very useful for visitors and readers ... continue to work
#15 To help for studies and part time blogging in #steemit he can also promote steemit to their university.
Thank you sir @jjeeppeerrxx143 hehe but the rule is only those who donated can vote. :)
Yes
Donation is the charity of life..... i think...
this good creativity
carry on dear
Thanks @dorbatim for this opportunity which I guess you did with selfless interest and to help people who are actually in need and not people who can actually get it for themselves if they want to,but you should have said all these sudden rules on the day of the competition instead of now,to make things organised...you just took the right of donors to vote which is not very nice because even I donated a little and doing that is like telling me my little is too little and almost useless.....you also didn't add these extra rules on the other donation,then why did you on this?
Every time I learn something new, some new user manipulation is invented, then I'm perfecting the model of the competition. This is a process because I want to help those who need it. There will be many users with 0.001 SBD and voting to take the money, of course they will share it among themselves.
That's why I have chosen a rule from 1 SBD, or I am considering introducing a new rule that whoever invests has so many points. If he invests 1 SBD has 1 point, if he invests like me 40 SBD then has 40 points.
That's very unlikely natural because now you can vote for one person and no other donors can even bother voting because for sure whosoever you vote will win,you did the contest you're not even supposed to vote,if you would do it this way I'd rather Suggest you send them back their less than 1sbd and let those you want to vote to vote! This is prefrential.....also the part where you said " they have to get the laptop first" I noticed in other donations you never told them such,does that mean you trust them but not these? If they had the money for the laptop do u think we will apply for this? Or do u suggest the winner takes the laptop on lend so they can get the money later to pay? I am confused right now,I've always seen you to bring up fair and better suggestions
When you give your money, then you will understand what I'm talking about. I live in a country where monthly wages are 200-300 dollars. There are many non-employed people, they do not have any computers at home. I do not need a competition to donate the Lap - Top, I did it for the Steemit community.
I donated 40 SBDs, made many competitions, I donated 2 in the first competition instead of 1 lap top. Now my voice is worth the same as other donors. Also, everyone else can take part in the competition. I can not believe that people want to donate to themselves a Lap top, where their heart, love and compassion for other people are theirs. It has the poorer ones, which they do not even have for food.
Before they want to donate to theirself you don't know if they have food,not everyone you see looking well is well they just don't have to look hypocritical just to show that now you'd only be sure of the people close to u because you are sure of what they go through doesn't mean others don't...I've also give from the little I've had severally ,but I do get your point it is very kind of you and I feel bad that you're confused on what to do about this and I do hope you think of something and a fair one too.... Goodluck and God bless
I participated in the contest and wanted donating the laptop to myself, that wasn't out of selfish interest or something else, it's because I am also really in need of this laptop so much and i can't possibly give out something I don't have myself. Believe me when I saw that contest I was so happy as I said to myself, this is prayer answered as God knows how deeply I have been in need of it and there was an opportunity in my very before. I am a giver and I give out what I have. I really need a laptop that's why I intended donating to myself and even the many people that joined steemit because of me. A lot can't because of lack of device, I can also use it to help them out. But in a case where I don't get to vote for myself or anyone voting for me, how can I achieve this. @dobartim, you're a good man, please reconsider us that wants to donate to ourselves. Thank you very much and God bless you immensely
So nice picture
All these was going so well until now.. What kind of rules just suddenly popped up?
So people that donated less cant vote. If this was told to me from the onset, i wouldnt have wasted my SBD. This is a donation and not a sale. Every donor should have equal rights.
I mean, we are donating out of our selflessness and should be able to vote no matter what.
You should have given the threshold from the beginning and then maybe, I wouldnt have been as disappointed as I am now. Some people did their best to raise something.
You just told them that their best wasnt good enough.😬
There will be a "next time".
Every time I learn something new, some new user manipulation is invented, then I'm perfecting the model of the competition. This is a process because I want to help those who need it. There will be many users with 0.001 SBD and voting to take the money, of course they will share it among themselves.
That's why I have chosen a rule from 1 SBD, or I am considering introducing a new rule that whoever invests has so many points. If he invests 1 SBD has 1 point, if he invests like me 40 SBD then has 40 points.
If you want, I can get your donation back.
Pass... Its not right... Any body that wins should take my donation. I'm cool with it.
Thank you for support.
my vote is for #15 @yssa
Thank you so much sir! :)
I think @yssa made a good suggestion about ordering the laptop and sending to the winner. It's really difficult loaning money to buy a laptop here in Nigeria. Moreover, a laptop here is too costly.
I had promised my cousin I'll win the laptop for her so she can use it to steem and also get other students registered on steemit in here University. But my chances are slim because of the rules. Sad
Thanks ma'm @lizzieharrison, my intention is also the same as yours ma'm :) it's for my uncle but rules are rules. We just need to follow. We will just hope we will win and if not let's just be happy with whoever wins this contest.
If we will not win maybe it's not intended for us now coz maybe there's someone who really needs it than us for now, maybe soon we can also have one and help those people we wanted to help.
Cheers! Best of Luck to everyone. Hoping the donors will choose the right one. :)
@yssa Yes rules are rules. It's a good thing we share the same intention. We should only hope for the best. Good luck to you.
Goodluck to you also Ma'm :)
If my vote counts I will vote for me #15 yssa but only the donors has the power :'(
I vote contestant #20
I hope you'll be consistent with all the previous rule next time and wait for a new contest before changing them.
Of course
I vote #5 myself
I vote for myself #17
I vote #20
I vote for #12 :)
Gracias!!!
I donated 1sbd
