We all have goals. Have you ever been given a gift toward those goals or to an extent to achieve them outright? What a feeling! It is with this thought I propose the following...

The Steem Dream & Paying it Forward

I firmly believe Steemit is hands-down the best social platform on the web. In my limited time here I have read articles and witnessed kindness of others that surpasses anything I have heard of in person. Especially when you consider we are strangers gifting strangers! I want to try and take this to the next level and bypass the Minnow / Whale barrier on exposure and gifting.

The Concept

Share a goal, a project, or a wish of yours that is obtainable through donations from those who wish to help you on it. In short, something that our gifts of money will allow you to get or do. Include the estimated amount of money needed for this goal. This will allow us to pay forward the most users as possible.

Write a post telling us what it is and why you want to accomplish it. Tag your post with SteemDreamPayFwd so that others can see all running posts and vote and contribute.

Make "SteemDreamPayFwd" your primary category!

Official Rules & Terms

• You must re-gift at least 25% of the Steem dollars (SBD) you receive to another project within 1 week of your payout. In the event no other projects are running, gift your 25% to a Steemit user of your choice.
• You may contribute to more than one project, but the total transferred from your account must be at least 25% of your SBD payout from your project post.
• You must comment on your post, the total amount of SBD received from your project.
• You must comment on your post, when you transfer your SBD to another project, stating the amount and the recipient. A link to their project post would be helpful.
• Use the Memo "SteemDreamPayFwd" when transferring funds to users so they will know why they received it.
• If you receive a transfer for your project, comment on your post with the amount and who it was from.
• Write a thank you post when your goal or steps towards your goal are reached. Put a link to this post as a comment on your original project post -- do not post this thank you to the SteemDreamPayFwd category!
• Only one project post per user, per month. Be Honest!

While this is initially a creation of my own, it is my desire that this becomes a community project and evolves over time to fit the needs of us all. Your suggestions on how to make this better are welcomed and appreciated!

I'm Ready to Pay it Forward!

I will contribute at least 75% SBD from this post to projects that are posted. I am not doing this to make big bucks. I want to showcase the awesomeness of this community. If this post goes wild, my contributions will go wild too!

Hold your project post until this post pays out! I cannot donate what I don't yet have! I suggest a post date of 6/30/2017 -- one week from today.

---

I will fund the person(s) I pick on July 7, 2017. Feel free to upvote or support those you wish to help in the meantime. If you transfer funds, include #steemdreampayfwd in the Memo. If you receive funds, reply to your post with the amount and who it was from. Remember Rule #1 when you are gifted.

Spread the word!

Resteem this to spread the word about this project! Without YOU this will not take off!
