Millionaire & Billionaire Giving FAQ

Common questions from wealthy patrons

What can a billionaire do with one million pounds?

A billionaire can fund a charitable programme, back research, support a community project or make a direct personal gift. The Red Button Project offers a voluntary personal gift intended to change one individual’s life; it is not a charity donation or investment.

How can wealthy people give money directly to an individual?

Verify the recipient, purpose, payment route and legal or tax implications. This project starts with a private enquiry and uses Stripe’s hosted checkout. Patrons should obtain independent professional advice where appropriate.

Is The Red Button Project a charity donation?

No. It is a voluntary personal gift request, not a registered charity, investment, loan, purchase, raffle, lottery or equity arrangement. No charitable tax deduction is promised.

Can a billionaire give one million anonymously?

A patron may remain anonymous publicly, although payment providers, banks or authorities may still require identity and compliance information.

Does the patron receive shares, repayment or a reward?

No shares, equity, interest, repayment, prize, product, service or investment return is offered.
