Recently my heart was filled with joy as a post from 
(you can read his inspiring story here: https://steemit.com/blog/@darthnava/fellow-steemers-i-need-help-as-my-mri-results-are-not-encouraging)
He needs to have a surgical operation in the next 2-3 weeks on his spine, which if not done soon could be life threatening. The total cost of his treatment will be around $4,050.
He does not currently have enough to cover the costs, and his father is jobless.
He humbly reached out on Steem, and the results are life changing. Within 4 HOURS the post has brought in $916.95! This is insane! (I am sure by the time you are reading this, his post has brought in even more)
This type of kindhearted help from the community really shows the positive power Steemit will have on the world for our future to come, and this is just the beginning..
The above example just barely scratches the surface on what Steemit can do. Imagine this: A massive terrorist attack happens, and hundreds of victims are injured. Families reach out via Steemit, and are directly supported by friends, family, and the entire Steemit community. Each one of these families can be rewarded hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to help aid them in a time of loss. Whether the money helps pay for a funereal, or hospital costs, it will tremendously help out the families in need.
Steemit can also help out entire cities that are effected from natural disasters such as earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes.Guys... the potential with Steemit is HUGE! Steemit will single handedly help save the world day by day, and post by post.
If you are on Steemit right now, you are witnessing the beginning of something very very huge. Mark my words, Steemit has the power to positively change the world and help people in a way never seen before. Congratulations to all of you for being on Steemit before the masses join. We are all pioneers.
Peace.
