HOW ABOUT ANOTHER RAFFLE, by Guest on Jan 8, 2008 1:10:50 GMT 1, It would be easier and probably more lucrative if you just gave the artwork to the MS and let them make noise to sell it, or auction it off. Not to be rude here, but they have an entire division of marketeers and promotional specialists that would know exactly what to do to maximize the potential of this gift.
Best of luck to your fiancee. My dad has had MS for about 5 years now, and we are getting concerned because it just started to advance again... I totally feel for your wife's condition. Best of Luck, it's a shitty disease all around.

I'd also be happy to contribute a small piece if you want to accept other bits - I have a Stef pirates print that isn't going to make the wall so happy to donate it.

Sorry people I have only just got online to read this thread and answer PM's 
The only problem I can see with a raffle is that I can remember reading somewhere about the people that are doing the Graffle had to buy some sort of license to run the raffle does anyone else know about that?
Just wondering if it might be easier to auction the pieces for charity on ebay?

HOW ABOUT ANOTHER RAFFLE, by G-Man on Jan 8, 2008 14:48:34 GMT 1, You do need a license to run a raffle for charity if people are buying a ticket then its regarded as a lottery and has all the usual lottery restrictions to it.
The only way I know to get round this is to say that no purchase is necessary and the price of tickets is a donation.
Hope this helps
