I have been here for 18 moons and I think it is only fair that I show my appreciation and support to this amazing platform now that I feel it needs it most as a result of the growth of clones or forked platforms.
I never really promoted Steem/Steemit publicly because it was even very difficult to convince those around me because they were only interested in earning and could not see it reflect in my wallet. Internet connection too is very expensive for them to sacrifice like I have been doing.
Explaining the Writings on My t-shirts
Steem Cameroon
With the birth of @wafrica community in March of this year, I thought it wise to get more Cameroonians on Steemit so that they can contribute to this amazing community as well as enjoy the opportunities offered by the Steem blockchain in general. I made my intention known to wafrica officials who agreed to support this adventure. So, I started by gathering all Cameroonians on Steemit with this post. This then gave birth to Steem Cameroon.
There on, I manage to promote steemit and get more Cameroonians on Steemit. At one time, we had about (30) members which one can check from the member list in this post. I spent hours everyday giving lectures and answering questions on whatsapp as well as supporting all members with upvotes. I had less than 50SP at the time and I rented 200SP to make my votes more valuable but it never was.
Wafrica too has it policies that meant it could not support all our newbies, only a good SP would have. It was until when I passed out an information about how one can become a guest writer for @wafrica that @hermannsol came to the spotlight and has been doing very well for himself since then. Do check out his blog and show him some love for staying with us.
Having "Steem Cameroon" on my Steem t-shirts reminds me of my efforts in building the community. The community is very much a live but only on whatsapp for now lol. I believe members will come back to Steeemit if conditions are favorable.
Steem Logo
One of objective of getting these t-shirts is to promote Steem and Steemit. From what I read some months ago, the Steem logo is copyright free whereas Steemit logo is a property of Steemit inc. May be this is wrong though but the Steem logo is very common in t-shirts that I saw online. So, I settled for it too.
wafrica
wafrica is a community that I have a huge respect for having let me to Steem Cameroon though things are not the same with this community at the moment and I am less active on their discord server because of obvious reasons.
Steemit
Steemit is simply an amazing platform. I have been able to learn a lot, make friends and family on this platform. I can not say that I am promoting steemit without having the word on my t-shirt.
@bleepcoin
I go to know @bleepcoin on discord when he upvoted a post I shared on discord. I noticed he is a bitcoin lover and also someone who is very interested in Cryptocurrencies in general. He gave my post a 100% upvote which was over a dollar I think, this was rare to me. So, I contacted him to thank him but he told me to always share with him my posts of Cryptocurrency and blockchain adoption across Africa so that he does not misses any. We have been operating like this from there on though he comes around on his own sometimes. Thank you @bleepcoin
@shortcut
I bomb in to @shortcut on his Steem anniversary post in July (see it here). The post was also a giveaway post which had many giveaways of different categories but I settled for a 4 week 200SP delegation giveaway. The results of the giveaway was to be announced up on the post payout but when I commented about my community, he instantly delegated 200SP to me and to top it all, I still have this delegation till date. Thank you @shortcut. Please do check his posts and support his journey to SteemFest3.
@leeuw
I sadly cannot remember how I met @leeuw, not sure if it was during one of his numerous giveaway contests but we have been able to get along very well and he (I believe a "he") has been one of the very few that support my work as well as motivate me. Thank you very much @leeuw
@jennimorillo
I got to know about @jennimorillo from a resteem by @leeuw and since then she has been a great friend. She has been so supportive and reads almost if not all of my posts. It actually a great joy for me when I get some back on my post. It is sometimes more valuable than upvotes. Jenni has been that one person that gives me this joy. Please do check out her blog and support this great Venezuelan mother. Thank you @jennimorillo
Not Included
There are quite a few people that I left out not entirely intentional but I would love to give them a shout out. Thank you @helamia @simonjay @neoxian and members of my new home, the City of Neoxian discord server.
THANKS TO EVERYONE

Lets raise steem to the moon together as a community.

Thank you for your understanding. You're a member of my Steem family.

Wow my friend makes my heart happy with your comment, you are an excellent and wonderful human being, an enterprising boy who earned my respect, @leeuw is an angel to whom I am also very grateful, it is not easy to live in Venezuela by the economic crisis we are going through but thanks to God and my friends I am doing well and I can cover much of the needs of my home with my older children who also work help, although every day the prices are higher, I do my best so that there is no shortage of food on our table, I am very grateful.
I also fight for my teenage daughter to study and have a better future
I like the design you created for the shirt, I would proudly wear one.
Ouch! Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it.
Also, I do understand what you're facing and it's good to know that you're putting in your best to sustain your family.
