Weekly Prize Drawings and Winners
2021 MCC Giveaways
Each week of the 2021 Campaign, we’re holding a random drawing with one or more prizes. Every single week, starting this week!
Announcing our special 2021 MCC Kickoff Prize (online giving only): Anyone who gives ONLINE on Tuesday, October 5, 2021, has a chance to win a $50 Visa gift card. Four people will win!
To be eligible, all you need to do is give. Donate any amount to any cause you love participating in the Campaign and BOOM! Your name is automatically included in the random drawing.
Don’t win? Don’t worry! Your name will stay in the running for each prize drawing, from the time you donate until either you win, or the MCC ends. Click here for Terms and Conditions.
CLICK HERE to head over to the giving portal and start the giving process.
Soon, we’ll announce the agency or department of each winner. We also include the winner’s first and last name, if permitted.
We’ll make that list available on the homepage, but in the meantime, view the prizes and winner list below from last year’s Campaign to get an idea of the prizes you’ll be eligible for when you participate in this year’s Campaign.
Regardless whether you win a prize, in our eyes, and the eyes of MCC’s charities, you ARE a winner. In fact, every MCC donor is a winner. Truly. Because when you give back through the MCC, you support more than that cause – you support the people, communities, and ecosystems across Maryland and the wider world. In short, you make the world a better place. We are grateful to each and every one of you.

Meet Two 2020 MCC Prize Winners
2020 MCC Prize Winner Kelvin Jenkins, BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport, said “To whom much is given, much is expected! I have a good idea of how the Coronavirus pandemic has negatively impacted nonprofits and small business operators. I wish that I was able to give more. Thank you Maryland Charity Campaign for sharing these organizations committed to improving our communities.”
