If you have spent enough time on Hive, you surely know @enginewitty.

Witty is a witness, a wordsmith, the "crypto pimp", a US Veteran, the founder of the Alliance, host of the Block Party, Splinterlands player, a silver gold stacker, a fisherman, a father and a friend to SO MANY of us. He has spent years of helping tons of people gain their footing on Steem and now Hive. Today it is our turn to help him.



Last night, while out of town with his three girls, Witty received the news his home was on fire. He has since shared photos in the alliance discord. There is extensive damage and several of his family's beloved pets lost their lives. I can only imagine the upheaval this kind of loss would bring to someone's life.

To do SOMETHING to help @enginewitty with his family's immediate and long term needs @summertooth and I (@dfinney) would like to suggest the following ways to help:

  1. Send hive donations to either this account @ewfund or directly to @enginewitty. Witty has the keys to this account. As do I and @summertooth. @thekittygirl also shares this account's posting key. I am not sure if Hive is immediately useable, but we know this is an easy way for folks on the blockchain to contribute.
  2. Send donations to Metamask 0x531F2B46BD97947BF7EC4dA7d86fE9BcFff5D3dc
  3. Purchase an Amazon or Walmart e-gift card. These gift cards can be sent to email address: helpwitty@gmail.com
  4. Send PayPal donations to immerlyn@gmail.com

We are also checking to see if there is an appropriate physical address to mail items.

Thank you so much for helping our friend. Feel free to reach out here or on discord if you have questions or suggestions on other ways to assist.

Much love,

@dfinney & @summertooth

The response from this Hive community on the whole, is remarkable. You're all banding together for a common cause and spreading love like it's free. (It is though, isn't it?) Not just from communities I'm involved with or family I've adopted here, but everyone with a beating heart is doing what they can. I'm amazed by you all and will have what is looking to be, thousands of thank you letters to write.

God Bless and hug those little girls! Be strong brother!

!LUV And certainly sending you positive energy, prayers, calm, and so glad that you and those prescious girls are ok...

Love your guts brother...

I'm so sorry about this @enginewitty, this is truly horrible :(
I'm glad your family is ok though, even though a lot of memories are lost, the most important thing is you are safe.

I sent a small donation, it's currently all I can miss but I will come back later when I can.

Take care! You will get through this!

<3

The outpouring of love and support is great to see and not a surprise in the least, it's like a virtual group hug!

@enginewitty I don't know you personally, but that doesn't matter, I hope you will soon recover from your loss. I give my full support to you and your family. Good luck my friend. 💪💪

let's send HBD or dollars people.

Thanks for helping out! Ewwwwwwwwwwww!!

Dang. Sorry for this misfortune.

Although, I kinda wish you guys didn’t name this account “Ew Fund”.

That was all @summertooth. 😄 The pressure to help was too distracting to notice the name. 😂

Maybe it is is like ewwww I am so sorry this shit thing happened? 🙂

Thanks for helping @enforcer48. Everyone needs a some ew in their life, right ;)

😂🤣😂

It's like E-Dub fund, not

"eeewwww" LOL

🤣

I am simply speaking my mind.

I laughed because that was also my first reaction...

eeeeewwwww.... Fund

Thank you for your witness vote!
Have a !BEER on me!

Thank you for your support @queenstarr!

I'm literally very sad to hear about this, he seems like a kind and nice guy. Don't know much about him as I'm also new and I'll do as much as possible to contribute and help him.

Really happy to see community united to help him! More respect to whole community.

Well welcome to the community and thanks for stopping by to support the cause :)

Thank you for the welcome and yea helping or supporting for the cause in difficult times is matter a lot to build a better community. Really love to see caring people around.

Sorry to hear this sad news. It's never easy losing a pet, they are like family and the pain hurts just as much. Sending hugs, prayers and as much HBD as I have, which isn't much, but every bit helps. 😊

Yep, it all helps @frostyamber, thanks for your support.

Always happy to help @summertooth and @enginewitty is one of those guys that's always there for others and its nice to be able to give it to someone that needs it and will put it to good use instead of just sitting in my wallet doing nothing. 😊

Much love to you @enginewitty from the stacking crew.

Hi @myprecious, thanks for your support!

So shocking , I am grateful that you weren’t at home but it’s so sad that all is lost I am in a loss for words but your are in my thoughts.

Thanks for your support @brittandjosie :)

Thanks everyone for the very quick response with this post to help support him, and help him recover!
I am so glad he and the girls were out of town and safe!

Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

We are doing well @summertooth, Are you still between jobs or have you found something new ? Hope all is well going well for you!🤗

Keep your chin up, Witty.
