Hook, line & sinker

It's a lottery, not a line. Nobody waits on the sidewalk.

Every day Thomas bakes a small, fixed batch of something bite-size — his call, posted with the drop. There are only so many bites on the reel, so spots are drawn at random and a fair shot beats showing up early.

Why a fishing reel

Thomas has spent a lot of years learning to reel things in gently.

He fishes the Schuylkill and just about every creek within an hour of Royersford. When he saw how a college kid in Philly was lowering cookies to strangers on a pulley, something clicked: he already owned the perfect rig.

So now, from a fourth-floor window, a single bite-size bake rides down the line each night — whatever came out of the oven that day. It started as a way to use good gear for something kind, and it stays free to enter on purpose, because the whole point is the giving, not the getting.

Good questions

Everything you'd shout up to a fourth-floor window.

Is it really free? +

Entering the lottery is always free. If you win and want to give, you can — any amount, or nothing. Every dollar collected goes straight to that night's featured charity. Thomas keeps none of it.

How are winners chosen? +

Randomly. Entries close at 5 PM, names are drawn, and winners get a text by 6 PM with the exact window and a pickup time. Showing up early does nothing — that's the whole idea.

Where's the drop? +

A fourth-floor window in Royersford, PA. The precise address and your time slot are texted only to winners, so the block stays calm and the neighbors stay happy.

What's the bite each night? +

Whatever Thomas decides that morning — cookies one night, brownie bites or mini whoopie pies the next. It's always bite-size, always baked that day, and always posted above before entries close. Have an allergy? Tell him in the entry note and he'll let you know if that night's bake is safe.

Which charity gets the money? +

A different local cause each night, always Thomas's choice and always posted with the drop. Suggest one in your entry note — a lot of the featured charities started as a winner's idea.
