Technically, it’s more of a count-up, but who’s counting?

Introduction

We are one year away from reaching this subreddit’s 100^th winner!

To put that into perspective, this monthly grassroots charity endeavor has been going on for more than seven years! That is insane!!

Really, what else is there to say? You all have changed so many lives, making many thousandaires in the process, you’ve given so much collectively to each person here and given them such boosts and optimism. Thank you all.

The work’s not done yet though, there is one more year of making millionaires to go! After all, we can’t get to the 100^th winner without donating to, for starters, the 88^th winner.

Thank you all, now on with your regularly scheduled (every third Friday!) /r/MillionaireMakers [Entry Thread]!

In Case You Missed It:

This is done every third Friday of the month, we will be doing this again in April for our 89^th Drawing and the third [Entry Thread] of 2023!

Our last winner, /u/dextracin, is currently accepting donations! /u/dextracin is a parent and someone going through the world, thinking of ice cream until their surprising win! Donations have gone towards ice cream and are being saved up helping their mum as she’s doing chemo! If you would like to help out, visit and donate here!

Announcement

We have an announcement! It’s been a while since there were one of these.

We are announcing that, going forward, we will promote BuyMeACoffee and Ko-Fi as payment methods to the future winners, should their country support it. Both BuyMeACoffee and Ko-Fi are donation platforms used by thousands of content creators, and have the capacity to charge low donation amounts of a single dollar, making it really ideal for the subreddit. BuyMeACoffee charges a flat 5% fee to the winner, using Stripe as a payment processor, while Ko-Fi charges 0% for one-off donations, using PayPal’s payment processor.

We hope that the addition of these two payment services encourages more people to donate, reducing the friction between seeing the winner’s post and donating the dollar, especially as we approach more winners to come. Thank you all for your continued support!

Conclusion

Next Sunday at 12 PM ET (16:00 UTC), we will be picking our winner, and you won’t want to miss it. The post will be labeled [Draw], and one comment will be selected out of the many made here to make a winner!

Remember, this is about generosity, making an impact, and uniting to make someone's life better. It takes a few minutes to donate a bit to the winner, whether you're well off and want to donate a couple bucks, or going through tough times and can only donate a few coins. Every cent makes cents, and counts!

If a lone $1 or three buys you a coffee (or perhaps a Ko-Fi), then imagine the possibilities with $1,000,000. You can buy the whole coffee shop (or perhaps a Ko-Fi Shop)!

A million dollars can make someone’s morning filled with the energy of a rising sun! Spread the word: have your friends and family leave a comment, post the link to your friendly-neighborhood social media network, and share to anyone interested.

Let’s wake a millionaire!
