We had a lot of talk about this around six months or so ago and my view remains the same that organised charities drain the contributions they receive by way of salaries and other expenditures which leave very little remaining in a lot of cases for the actual intended recipients. I believe steemit has a great potential for charity and should be further investigated but we should start our own rather than inviting established charities onto the site I feel. Initiatives such as @familyprotection clearly show that there is a place for such on steemit and that we can re-invent the concept.

Good to see a post bringing the subject up and starting conversation around it.

Hope your day is going well @walkingkeys. :)
