Raffles
RAFFLE OVERVIEW
All event participants have the opportunity to sell raffle tickets to assist in their fundraising tactics. Participants can meet their minimum fundraising amount by selling raffle tickets. Better yet--combine an email campaign along with selling raffle tickets, and you could easily raise more than $4,000!
Find one or two local event(s), reserve a machine, arrange for raffle tickets and the rest is easy!
