[ About This Lotto ]

» My name is Alice (main: W A N D E R x L U S T) and this lotto is being run through my mule, obviously. :] «
» I decided to create this lotto in order to help the organizations that make me proud to be a Gaian. «
» I love giving out donations and have always wanted to start a charity. «
» Unfortunately, its easy to start a charity, but much more difficult to keep it alive and funded. «
» It absolutely breaks my heart to see charities have to close down because of insufficient funds. «
» Then the other night it hit me! If I couldn't start a charity, why not help the ones already in existence? «
» And that's when I came up with an idea to help both charities and my fellow Gaians at the same time. «
» Thus this lotto was born and with your help, we'll be able to make life a little bit easier for some charities. :] «

» A majority (at least 200k) of the profits will always go to funding various charities. «
» The rest of the profits will go to getting bigger, better prizes for each round as well as possibly paying future employees (such as mods). «
» Care to help me make this a success? :3 «

Because this is the first round, I've decided to feature my personal favorite charity: FreeRice.
FreeRice is a wonderful charity helping people all over the world, not only online but in real life as well. They advocate both building a large vocabulary AND taking an active role in ending world hunger by asking Gaians to play the FreeRice game over at www.freerice.com. As if these aren't reason enough to play the game, they also offer generous amounts of gold as an incentive! Along with their great cause, they are also extremely friendly, patient and inviting to all visitors. There's no reason to not love this charity!

To visit The FreeRice Charity, you can click the banner above or click here.

To help out The FreeRice Charity cause on your own, visit their revival project here!

[ Charity Pool ]

» This is where I will keep the charity nominees for the next round. «
» I will assign each nominee a slot and at the end of each lotto, I will generate a random number. The charity holding that number will be donated to in the next round. :] «
» The remaining charities will automatically be entered into the next pool. «

» Charities: «
[1] Wishing Sweetheart Charity
[2] Charity In Progress

» Do you run or know of a worthy charity? PM me with a link to it, why you like it, and a little basic info about it. «
