5th Element Group and WinTogether.org Partner to Launch a Charitable Sweepstakes to Fund the Arbor Day Foundation's Time for Trees® Initiative

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- WinTogether.org announced the launch of its charitable sweepstakes platform yesterday, with an inaugural campaign to support the Arbor Day Foundation's Time for Trees initiative. The partnership was designed and is co-managed by 5th Element Group PBC – a global impact consultancy – which has an impressive history of creating global partnerships to achieve global goals, connecting performance with purpose.

The WinTogether platform supports charitable causes and incentivizes a large audience of people to donate by offering them the chance to win unique luxury items, large cash prizes, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. In order to maximize their efforts toward increased donor engagement, WinTogether has partnered with iHeartRadio, AccuWeather, Gannett Media, Lottery.com, philanthropist Jamie Gold, and other prominent leaders in the social impact community.

"We bring together donors, causes, sponsors, and massive distribution to gamify charitable giving and increase funding for diverse social good initiatives. The Arbor Day Foundation is an ideal partner for us, and we are thrilled to support the Time for Trees initiative," said Tony DiMatteo, CEO of WinTogether.

Now in its second year, the Time for Trees initiative aims to inspire five million new tree planters and to plant 100 million trees in forests and communities worldwide by 2022 – the 150th anniversary of Arbor Day – with the support of new and existing donors. The initiative leverages trees as a simple, powerful way to preserve global necessities, such as clean air and water, that are becoming increasingly compromised.

"By planting trees around the globe, the Arbor Day Foundation is making a significant investment in our collective future – paving the way for the health and well-being of people in this and future generations," Dan Lambe, President of the Arbor Day Foundation. "We cannot wait another day to take action – the time for trees is now."

Donations raised on the WinTogether platform will directly support the Arbor Day Foundation in their goal of planting 100 million trees. And everyone who donates will be entered to win the not-yet-released new Tesla Cybertruck.

"This is an omniwin for everybody involved, and for the planet," said 5th Element CEO Jim Van Eerden. "When it comes to planting trees, there is no organization better than the Arbor Day Foundation, and WinTogether will bring many new people to the cause."
