Steemit Engagement Challenge Application - HindWhale Community

---

Steemit's monthly engagement challenge is an excellent way to engage our content creators and authors, and we thank the Steemit team for providing this opportunity.

Our community and our authors will remain active, motivated, and competitive throughout the month as a result of this monthly selection. Communities like ours are encouraged to go the extra mile to ensure our community members receive the best care because of such challenges in the past.

The community account has grown rapidly over the course of the time we've been running it. Without the help of theme curators, Steemit team members, and HindWhale management, this would not have been possible.

Recent months have seen many changes to the Steemit platform, and many new communities have been created, each aiming to cater to a specific niche. We hope to be selected for the challenge and contribute to its development and refinement as we move forward.

Purpose Of The HindWhale Community

---

Designed to serve all Steem users who want to grow their accounts and want to engage with other members, the HindWhale community has been set up as a general community for all Steem users. As a community, we began with the purpose of serving as a lighthouse to guide users toward achieving their goals.

A newcomer generally finds the entire experience overwhelming and does not know where to begin. HindWhale gives every newbie the attention and guidance they need and is guided throughout their journey by the community team.

We have the following missions and visions for our community on Steem:

Mission: The onboarding of new users and the education of existing users are essential for the long-term retention of both new and existing users. In order to achieve this, we aim to create a positive environment that encourages people to work together and to help one another.

Vision: Steem blockchain should be everyone's number one choice for any social media needs they may have. Every person who joins us is ensured a better life than he or she had before.

In this way, everyone on HindWhale has the opportunity to share their content with the world. Our members are regularly involved in contests, but we also encourage them to take part in creative activities to keep them engaged.

A Brief History of HindWhale Community

---

As a result of a long dispute between the admins of Steem India, HindWhale community was created in order to detach ourselves from the country's community and establish a community that could serve a wider niche and a broader audience.

Since then, we have successfully run this community and have welcomed many new users who regularly contribute to it. Additionally, the main curation account of our community has been a source of encouragement for many members, since it has been constantly growing in Steem power and helping members out.
