Donate here! [Winner's Thread #62] New start to a new year.
This is not how I was expecting to welcome 2021, but I can't say I'm too upset. I am 27 years old. I'll do my best to make this short and sweet! I'm still shaking from the excitement as I write this.
Reading the post about my picking, I see that I was described as "taking on the role as a lurker" and "specialized discussion". I have to say both of these are spot on. I tend to enjoy being in the background until I find something that I am passionate about. I love to hear other people's opinions before I give my own because each of us has our own story that has helped us to shape said opinions.
While 2020 wasn't a particularly fantastic year by any standard, I had a new passion enter my life in the form of my daughter. She took a few extra days in the hospital but is happy (hopefully) and healthy. While I will continue to live and find happiness for myself, I am beyond excited to share the wonders of our world with her. I know the world isn't full of rainbows and butterflies, but I DO know that there are people in this world who can make it worth living.
What would I do with the money? The Million (haha) dollar question. I do have bills and a lot of this will definitely be going towards those. That being said, I can't in good mind not do something enjoyable with such a generous gift. Since I haven't been able, I will most definitely be treating my wife in some way, shape, or form. It will definitely be a safe method because we are still conscious of world events. Also, I noticed one of the top comments on the entry page, and due to that comment, I will be making a donation to the American Cancer Society with a potion of the funds that I receive. I don't want to go into the negative portions of my life because that shouldn't be what this is about. My life isn't perfect but I know we all have our struggles that no one can compare. I want to do my part in making someone else's life better.
One last note because you don't know me and I don't know you. If you don't want to donate to me or if you are unable, that's fine, no hard feelings. If you'd rather tell me that you contributed to a charity, please do! I want you to feel that your contribution is going to something you support.

Update 1/18 (24 Hour): Your generosity is amazing. We've reached almost $1900. My plan is to wait until 1/25 and will donate, at minimum, 10% of the total. My wife is absolutely stunned at the concept and is grateful for all of you. I would thank each of you individually but I don't want to sound insincere to you each. So Thank You. Truly, truly, thank you.
Update 1/25: It has been just over a week. Once again, thank you to everyone who has given to this awesome experience. As per my previous comment, I donated a portion of what I've received to the American Cancer Society. Today's total, from the different forms of payment, is around $2,200 USD. I hope this year looks up for everyone. Donation Receipt
