Lottery.com, WinTogether.org Kick Off Clean Oceans Campaign, Mark First-Time Partnerships

  • Clean Oceans campaign set to drive one of the largest ocean plastics cleanups in history.
  • Campaign offers participants weekly prizes and one $50,000 grand prize.
  • Powered by Lottery.com, WinTogether.org innovates the way charitable organizations raise funds and interact with donors.

WinTogether.org, a charitable sweepstakes platform powered by Lottery.com, has launched the Clean Oceans campaign to support Ocean Voyages Institute (“OVI”), whose goal is to remove one million pounds of plastics and ghost nets from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (https://ibn.fm/5QM2c)

“The teams at WinTogther.org and OVI are excited to announce the launch of the Clean Oceans campaign,” said Lottery.com CEO Tony DiMatteo. “We hope that our joint effort helps the public rally around this important issue and drives one of the largest cleanups of ocean plastics and ghost nets in history.”

The Clean Oceans campaign, which launched in June and will run through Aug. 31, 2021, offers weekly prizes to participants as well as a $50,000 grand prize, sponsored by Lottery.com. Participants become eligible for those prizes by donating at https://wintogether.org. This campaign is the first time WinTogether.org has partnered with Causes.com and Countable, which serve major brands and nonprofits, including Tesla, Patagonia Inc. and Red Nose Day. WinTogether.org is also working on this campaign with Dollar Donation Club, whose pre-campaign work with OVI was central to the activation of the campaign.

WinTogether.org is a charitable sweepstakes platform focused on building the future of philanthropy. Founded and operated by Lottery.com, WinTogether.org has innovated the way charitable organizations raise funds and interact with donors by gamifying charitable giving. As part of its fundraising efforts, WinTogether.org incentivizes donors to get involved by offering the opportunity to win cash prizes, once-in-a-lifetime experiences, and luxury prizes. 

WinTogether.org is aligned with the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals and works with some of the largest nonprofits in the world to provide a new channel to raise awareness and funds, as well as provide opportunities for donors around the world to support worthwhile causes. A portion of the donations are received by the WinTogether Trust, a registered 501(c)(3) organization, which donates directly to the named campaign.

On Feb. 22, 2021, the company entered into a definitive agreement with Trident Acquisitions Corp. (NASDAQ: TDAC) to become a publicly traded company.

Important Information and Where to Find it

The proposed business combination will be submitted to shareholders of Trident for their consideration. Trident has filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC which includes a preliminary proxy statement and will include a definitive proxy statement to be distributed to Trident’s stockholders in connection with Trident’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by Trident’s stockholders in connection with the proposed business combination and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to Lottery.com’s shareholders in connection with the completion of the proposed business combination. After the Registration Statement has been declared effective, Trident will mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date established for voting on the proposed business combination. Trident’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read the preliminary proxy statement / prospectus and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement / prospectus, in connection with Trident’s solicitation of proxies for its special meeting of shareholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed business combination, because these documents will contain important information about Trident, Lottery.com and the proposed business combination. Stockholders may also obtain a copy of the preliminary proxy statement or, once available, the definitive proxy statement, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the proposed business combination and other documents filed with the SEC by Trident, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to Cody Slach, (949) 574-3860, [email protected].
