How do I run a query that returns a random result in Access?

I would like to generate a monthly random name draw from an access database.
I can filter the query to isolate a given time frame, but I would like to
randomly draw a winner from the query. Although I have fairly good access
knowledge, I have limited SQL, and VBA knowledge. Any assistance would be
appreciated.
