RaffleGives helps charitable organizations raise funds through 50/50 raffles. Every raffle is operated by a qualified nonprofit organization to support their charitable mission. Here are the simple rules you need to know to participate.
Age Requirement: You must be 18 years or older to participate.
Location Requirement: You must be physically located in the state where the raffle is being held when you buy tickets and participate.
Identity Verification: You'll need to provide accurate information when creating your account, including your real name, address, and contact information.
One Account Only: Each person can only have one account. Sharing accounts or creating multiple accounts is not allowed.
What is a 50/50 Raffle? In a typical 50/50 raffle, half of the money raised goes to the winner as a cash prize, and half goes to the nonprofit organization to support their charitable work.
Buying Tickets: You can buy raffle tickets online using a credit card, debit card, or other approved payment methods. All ticket sales are final - no refunds.
Drawing Process: Winners are selected using certified random number generators to ensure fairness. You don't need to be present to win.
Prize Payment: If you win, the nonprofit organization will contact you directly to arrange prize payment. You'll need to verify your identity and complete tax forms for prizes over certain amounts.
Geographic Restrictions: This service is only available to people physically located in the state where the raffle is operated. Using VPNs or other tools to hide your location is strictly prohibited.
Fair Play: Any attempt to cheat, manipulate results, or abuse the system will result in immediate account termination and forfeiture of tickets and winning.
Payment Security: All payments are processed through secure, industry-standard payment processors. We never store your credit card information.
Taxes: Prize winnings are subject to federal and state taxes. The nonprofit will provide appropriate tax forms, and you're responsible for reporting winnings on your tax return.
Account Information: Keep your account information current and accurate. You're responsible for all activity on your account.
Privacy Protection: We protect your personal information according to our privacy policy and applicable laws including GDPR and CCPA.
