View2WinThis – One Last Big Idea That Gives Back


What Is View2WinThis?

View2WinThis is a new website where you can watch short ads and get entered to win real prizes — like gift cards, tech, or trips — just for watching.


How It Works
1. You go to View2WinThis.com.
2. You watch a short video or ad (or a group of ads called a “SuperAd”).
3. You confirm you watched it (with a code, click, or QR scan).
4. Each time you finish an ad, you get an entry into a prize drawing.
5. We hold drawings daily, weekly, and monthly — and you could win:
• Visa gift cards
• Food and grocery cards
• Apple laptops
• ✈️ Even trips like to Hawaii


Where Does the Money Come From?

Companies pay us to show you ads — just like on YouTube.

But instead of keeping the money, we give 90% of it back to you — the viewers — in the form of prizes.

You don’t have to buy anything. You don’t have to sell anything.
Just watch, confirm, and you’re entered.


Why We Need Your Help

We’re raising money to launch the platform and get our first prizes ready.

Hi. My name is Ron and I’m a 57-year-old inventor. I have 11 patents and a heart for helping others. Unfortunately, I have a body that’s breaking down far too soon, and I’m a man facing the final chapter of his life.

I am in the late stages of ALS, aka Lou Gehrig’s Disease. I also have a brain tumor and a rare bone disorder that left me with 14 fused vertebrae from a surgery at the Mayo Clinic two years ago.

All of this of course has left me fully disabled. Doctors tell me I may only have 6 to 18 months left — maybe less.

But I’m not done yet.

Before I go, I’ve come up with one last idea.
One last mission.
One last gift I want to leave behind.

This isn’t about getting rich. It’s about giving back. Long after I’m gone.


Here’s the idea again:
1. Viewer visits View2WinThis.com or sees a “SuperAd” video on social media.
2. They watch 1–10 short ads (either standalone or in a 5-minute SuperAd bundle).
3. They confirm completion using a code, button, or QR scan.
4. Each completed ad = 1 entry tied to their Viewer ID.
5. Prize drawings are held daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly — like a digital bingo game.
6. You’re automatically entered into a drawing for real prizes:
• Pre-paid Visa cards
• ‍ Apple laptop
• Gift cards
• ✈️ Trips like to Hawaii
7. 90% of the platform’s net revenue goes back to the viewers.
8. Viewers are matched with age-appropriate ads using registration data (e.g., Gen Z gets sneaker ads, baby boomers get health & finance ads).

We’ll show every dollar. We’ll post every winner.

This isn’t a gimmick — it’s a way to build something that actually gives back.

That’s it.
Simple. Fair. Revolutionary.


Why It Matters

Big tech platforms like YouTube and TikTok make billions — but viewers never see a dime.

View2WinThis changes that:
• Watching = entries into weekly, monthly, and yearly prize drawings
• Drawings are public and transparent (like a digital bingo ball system)
• Every viewer gets a unique registration number
• Winners are randomly selected and announced
• 90% of the net revenue is returned to the people watching

This gives people something positive to look forward to every day — a reason to smile, to check in, and maybe win something real.


Why This Works
• Viewers get rewarded just for watching — not begging for likes or donations
• Advertisers get real, confirmed views — better than YouTube skip rates
• Incentive Loop: Viewers return daily, growing audience and ad value


❤️ Why I’m Doing This

I’ve lost almost everything — my health, my independence, and even inventions that were taken from me in the past.

But I’ve never lost my will to give.

Someone recently told me:
“You give like no one I’ve ever known.”

That stuck with me. And it’s why I have to try one last time —
to give the world something unforgettable.
Even if I won’t be here to see it grow.


What I Need

To launch View2WinThis safely, legally, and at scale, I need startup funds to cover:
• ✅ Legal filings (sweepstakes and prize law compliance)
• ✅ Website development and viewer tracking system
• ✅ Prize delivery tools (like prepaid Visa cards)
• ✅ Seed money for the first gift cards and giveaways
• ✅ Content and advertising to attract sponsors and viewers

I’m asking for $25,000 to get this platform off the ground.

If it works, it can fund itself — and keep giving long after I’m gone.


Your Donation = A Legacy

This isn’t just a charity project.

This is a movement — a system that shares the value of your attention, fairly.
It’s advertising with heart — and generosity at scale.

Together, we can build a platform that pays it forward — again and again.

That’s the legacy I want to leave behind:

A better way.
A fairer system.
A final gift from a lifetime of giving.
