Example for User (Seeking Help – Clothing & Footwear)
Step 1: Creating a Thread
Account: User assigned a U-... creates a new thread in the Clothing & Footwear section.
Content: "A family of two adults needs gently used winter clothing and footwear (winter jackets size M and L, men's shoes size 43, and women's boots size 38). If anyone has items in good condition they no longer need, we would be very grateful."
Step 2: Private Agreement
A donor responds via private message, offering matching clothing and footwear.
The user arranges shipping or in-person pickup details. The donor provides their D-... in the private message.

The system submits a request to the Stellar network.
A permanent entry with a link to the Stellar transaction appears in the user's private notebook as proof of received aid, and the confirmation also appears in the donor's notebook.
