This third time is gonna be the one!
I'm proposing a #steemgig, to give 7 SBD each, to the first 8 Steemians who do the following:
Donate at least 1 kg (2.2 lbs.) of Fruits, Vegetables, and/or any type of Flour/Grain, AND, at least 1 litre (33.8 fl. ounces) of any type of cooking Oil, to some food bank or other charity, such as a local school or community centre. It would be great, if you also gave a 3rd type of food that you connect with emotionally.
If you will be giving to a drop off centre where they must further distribute the food, DO NOT give fresh, or quickly perishable fruits or vegetables! In this case, please donate at least 5 cans of veggies along with the oil and 3rd food, or just stick with flour/grain, oil and a 3rd.
Take a photo or two of your gifts.
- Do something to make us realize you made the donation, like by attaching a sticker, or paper that says Steemit.com onto your gift. Or by taking a photo of you or someone else holding up the current date and the food. You're welcome to do this as @ yourusername or @ anonymously.
- Take a photo of yourself or someone putting it in the charity's dropbox, or walking into the drop-off centre/charity with it. (Can combine with no. 1 if you can make it clear.) (No need to ever show your face.) (Most grocery stores in my city have local food bank bins, yours might too!) Please DO NOT show the face of any recipient of your gift.
- Make a post on your own blog, with your photos and telling us about what you did, or if you want, about the charity, or who it will benefit. Please tag your post with #steemgig (s). Tag it however else you want too!
- Drop a link and a picture if you'd like, to your post in the comments of this article.
- Bonus 1 SBD each, and mitzvah/karma/brownie points if you get kids involved in the giving! For instance, knowing the purpose, they could craft the steemit.com sign, and do part of the buying, or the giving. Share the story of how they participated! Do they have something to say about the experience?
To the first 8 people, 7 SBD for 1 litre of cooking oil AND 1 kg of fruit/vegetables/5 cans and/or flour/grain (any kind,) and ideally plus a 3rd type of food, with some sort of Steemit.com label, given to charity according to the details above. An extra 1 SBD if kids participate.
Please see @thatsweeneyguy, @drpuffnstuff and @skye1's posts below for examples of how to do it. They amazingly did the last fully successful charity#steemgig, and donated at least 9 huge bags of clothing, toys, books, and food! You 3 are welcome to participate again, but if there are others, or more than 8, maybe the rewards should go to them first?

The offer is valid until post payout. If I wasn't clear on anything, or if you have any questions, please ask!
(Giving Peas, Vegetables, Modified Oil Bottle.)
Many thanks to @steemgigs ( @surpassinggoogle ) and to @bearbear613 who donated for Charity #steemgig!

Of course I'm sorry if I missed anyone, and thanks are also for the voters and commenters! Your effort will literally warm someone up! Together, may there be many more successes! B"H! And if we're up to 9 bags of clothing plus a few lbs. of food already, can our Steemit.com community raise it to 100?!!
We're bringing Steemit and #steemgig (s) into the real world, for Good!
Have Fun! :)
Thanks For Your Attention and Support!
