The\u00a0Elbi app empowers you to make a difference in minutes to people all over the world by uniting you with charitable projects that need your digital creativity.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There are five billion &#8216;likes\u2019 a day. Five billion double taps, thumbs ups and hearts every day.<\/p>\n<p>And what do they mean? Not much, really.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s where Elbi comes in \u2014 where little actions make a big difference, and a difference you can see. And for International Children\u2019s Day, we\u2019re teaming up with the good people at PicsArt to make an even bigger difference.<\/p>\n<p>PicsArt is a mobile creativity app that enables users to transform photos into beautiful, original pieces of art. And starting June 1st, we\u2019re inviting the world to download PicsArt and to join the community in creating \u201cunderwater world\u201d-themed images to help children in need.<\/p>\n<p>Elbi is a social enterprise platform. We don\u2019t ask you to send 10 dollars every month to huge charities and hope for the best. Instead, we introduce you to small charities around the world that are changing people\u2019s lives, people whose lives you can impact with just your phone.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, you don\u2019t need to give any money at all if you don\u2019t want to. You can make a real difference to real people just by being creative.<\/p>\n<p>Real people like the kids at Whisper.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_25376\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25376\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25376\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/867-Water-Colours.jpg\" alt=\"Whisper Charity, Uganda - Courtesy of Elbi\" width=\"780\" height=\"914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/867-Water-Colours.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/867-Water-Colours-585x686.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-25376\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy of Elbi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Whisper is a small charity based in a village called Jinga in Uganda. They started out as a children\u2019s home, providing an education and health care for seriously ill kids. They had such an impact on the community that they decided to build the first hospital in the village to care for the seriously malnourished children suffering in the area.<\/p>\n<p>And when those children have no one to go home to, Whisper takes them in and gives them all the support they need medically, educationally and emotionally.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_25377\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25377\" style=\"width: 1440px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25377 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3.jpeg\" alt=\"Whisper Charity, Uganda - Courtesy of Elbi\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3-780x520.jpeg 780w, https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3-1170x780.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/cdnblog.picsart.com\/2016\/06\/Whisper3-585x390.jpeg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-25377\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy of Elbi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Elbi has\u00a0been working with Whisper for a little while now and the children get super excited when they receive pictures from far away places. So we thought we\u2019d make it into a competition.<\/p>\n<p>All you\u2019ve got to do is send the kids a picture of something beautiful from the ocean, like wildlife, coral or even a shipwreck filled with treasure. Uganda is a long way from the coast and the children have never seen the sea before, so together, let\u2019s bring it to them.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 photos will be featured in the Elbi app and the top 100 photos from the contest will be made into a huge sea mural for Whisper\u2019s walls.<\/p>\n<p>Easiest difference you\u2019ve made? We thought so.<\/p>\n<p>The best bit? You can download Elbi from the App Store and upload your creation there too, and if someone \u2018likes\u2019 your creation on our app, that\u2019s them making a dollar micro-donation to Whisper. And you can safely consider yourself a fundraiser. We\u2019re currently available on iOS and will be available to android users very soon!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, a \u2018like\u2019 that matters.<\/p>\n<p>So PicsArt community, do what you always do, but make your amazing art make a difference today.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Here\u2019s how to enter:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Tag your under-the-sea creations with #ShowMeTheSea or participate in any of PicsArt\u2019s Contests this week \u2014 including the Daily Remix and Weekly Art, Photo and Drawing Projects.

Every photo tagged with #ShowMeTheSea, #wapShowMeTheSea, #wppShowMeTheSea or #wdpShowMeTheSea is\u00a0eligible to be one of the top 10 or 100 images chosen to be featured in the Elbi app or to be a part of the wallpaper for Whisper\u2019s orphans to enjoy, respectively.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post was written by our partner, Elbi.
