Our Story
Hi, we're Ben and Silvia! Welcome to The Million Pound Piggy Bank. This project started from a fun hypothetical question often seen on platforms like Reddit: "What if everyone in a large group just donated £1 or $1?" We thought, why not try it for a very personal and life-changing goal?
Our ultimate dream is to buy our future home – a place where we can build our life together. Inspired by the power of small, collective actions, we believe that every contribution, no matter how small, brings us a step closer to this significant milestone in our lives. We started this project with the hope that a community of kind-hearted individuals might want to contribute to our journey. It's more than just a fundraiser; it's a way for us to share our dream and hopefully inspire others.
How It Works
Every donation, big or small, adds to the piggy bank. You can see the total grow in real-time on our main page. We use secure payment processing through PayPal, ensuring your contributions are handled safely.
Why Your Contribution Matters
By contributing, you're not just adding to a fund; you're becoming part of a unique experiment in collective generosity. You're helping to turn our big dream of owning a home into reality, one pound at a time. It's a bit of fun to see how far we can go together!
Our Journey
We'll be sharing regular updates about our progress, thoughts on home-hunting, and other insights as we work towards our goal. Follow along with us!
What if we don't reach £1,000,000?
While our dream is to reach the full £1,000,000, we understand this is an ambitious goal. Should we not achieve the full target, all funds raised will still be dedicated towards the purchase of our future home. This could mean a substantial deposit, significantly reducing a mortgage, or allowing us to acquire a home that still fulfills our core dreams on a smaller scale.
Thank you for visiting and for considering a contribution. Your support truly means the world to us!
