Last month, TPG announced our latest Prizeo campaign to support the Gbowee Foundation Africa, an organization dedicated to outstanding education and leadership opportunities for women and girls. Every donation of $10 or more is entered into the sweepstakes to win 1 million United MileagePlus miles and a trip to NYC (or virtual consultation, depending on the pandemic) — where TPG himself Brian Kelly will help you plan an incredible trip with your winnings.

To date, TPG readers have donated tens of thousands of dollars to this campaign, an incredible response. And we’re hoping to increase that number significantly over the next few days.

Today, we're announcing our next flash sweeps with an awesome prize: a brand-new set of iconic Rimowa luggage. When you make a donation of at least $10 to the Gbowee Foundation Africa through our current Prizeo campaign by Friday April 9, you will be entered to win both the grand prize (a million United miles, and the trip to NYC) and a set of Original Rimowa luggage in silver.

That’s right — from now until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, April 9, all new donations of $10 or more will be entered to win one silver Original Cabin and matching Original Check-In L Rimowa luggage. These two pieces of luggage retail for over $2,000 — so when you’re ready to take to the skies again, you can do so in style.

Not only that, but select donation levels include TPG merchandise and other great prizes. And remember: Donating at least $10 will also earn you additional chances to win the grand prize, all for supporting a worthy cause.

How we chose these cards
