Draft:O! Millionaire

Submission declined on 20 August 2024 by CNMall41 (talk).

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

O! Millionaire

O! Millionaire is a lottery and environmental initiative based in the United Arab Emirates, combining the thrill of winning significant cash prizes with the mission of promoting environmental sustainability. It was launched as a unique platform where participants purchase Green Certificates, contributing to tree-planting projects while getting a chance to win substantial rewards.

History and Background

O! Millionaire was officially launched in the UAE on March 1, 2023. It was introduced as part of a global movement focused on reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable practices. The initiative was highlighted by its first live draw on March 2, 2023, and featured Maradona Rebello as the brand ambassador and presenter. Rebello, known for his environmental advocacy, was chosen to represent the platform due to his commitment to ecological causes ^[1] ^[2].

Green Certificates and Draws

Participants of O! Millionaire purchase Green Certificates, priced at AED 25 each, which not only enter them into weekly draws but also support the Oasis Park project. There are two main types of draws:

Raffle Draw: Weekly draws where winners are selected from the serial numbers of Green Certificates sold.
Grand Draw: A 7/44 number draw offering larger prizes for matching the numbers drawn.

Environmental Impact

The proceeds from the Green Certificates support Oasis Park ^[3], an ambitious reforestation project. Oasis Park aims to plant millions of trees to combat climate change and promote sustainability. The project is expected to offset significant carbon emissions and provide a green sanctuary in the UAE. The park will incorporate innovative technologies like air-to-water systems to ensure its sustainability ^[4].

Social Impact

O! Millionaire has made a substantial impact by offering life-changing prizes to its participants. As of 2024, over 50,000 individuals have won prizes, with total winnings amounting to millions of dirhams. The platform emphasizes transparency and fairness, conducting live draws and ensuring that the prize distribution process is open to public scrutiny ^[5] ^[6].

Millionaire has received coverage from various reputable sources, including The Filipino Times and Gulf News, highlighting its dual mission of rewarding participants and promoting environmental sustainability. The initiative has been praised for its innovative approach to combining entertainment with social responsibility ^[2]^[5](The Filipino Times) (GulfNews).
