Today, Barbara Phelps of Delmar, New York, is playing for a cause, as this week “Millionaire” will donate $10,000 to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals for each contestant that reaches Round 2! Don’t miss Tuesday’s show to see if Barbara makes it to the $100,000 question.
Well, gosh! They're letting regular people earn some money for charity (as well as for themselves) instead of inviting B-list celebrities to play? A tip of the hat to TPTB for doing something right!

OTOH, they're recognizing how rare an achievement it's become to reach Round 2.

Should've done that a long time ago instead of the celebrity editions galore with regular people if they wanted people to play for charity. Get $100K right, $10k bonus to the charity of your choice. $250K = $25k bonus, $500k = $50k, etc.
