With Christmas only 12 weeks away (sorry to bring it up so early) I remembered today about the raffle we done last year http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/main-d...e-charity.html and just how hugely successful it was due to the amazing members we have on the site.
The 1st year we raised iirc £800. Then last year I set a target of £1000 to try and better the previous year and somehow we managed a whopping £1360. Now the massive generosity from all the business's that donated the prizes Im sure had something to do with it lol but again, this year I want to better last years result so Im giving myself nearly 2 months to raise as much awareness to the start of the raffle which will be as always the 1st of December. There are many many new members and names I dont recognise so much now so hopefully we will be able to beat last years and really outdo ourselves. Details will be up nearer the time with ticket prices and what nots. I will probably ask another mod to do the draw if possible and as always 100% of the money raised will be donated to an air ambulance trust. I thought about going with a different cause but I think I will always keep it as the air ambulance.
So over the next 2 months I will be getting as many companies to donate prizes and posting lots about this raffle so everyone and their next door neighbours knows about it
As prizes get announced and companies come onboard it will all be shared so with 2 months to go before the start of it I bet we can make this one hell of a bumper raffle.
Thanks all.
