The UnRaffle

It is time to get the UNRAFFLE started. Remember, this is not a full on “raffle” because of our Southern Baptist upbringing and once you head down a path like that you may never make it back. So, we are doing an UNRAFFLE and selling UNTICKETS to you.

100% of the money raised through the UNRAFFLE will help offset our travel costs for our African Adoption. If you don’t know us, feel free to read a quick Seay Family adoption summary.

Here are the details:

UNTICKETS: You will receive 1 UNTICKET for every $25 you donate. There is no limit to how many UNTICKETS you can have in the drawing.

PRIZE: The prize for the UNRAFFLE is a 7 day/night resort stay at your choice of hundreds of locations. We have 2 of these prizes so that means two different people will walk away winners.

You can look at some of the vacation possibilities at the Resort Redemption Website. (**The vacation has to be booked by May 2, 2009 and travel must be completed by November 2, 2009. There are also some restrictions as to when properties are available. Go to the website where you can check on certain dates and destinations)  The prize is for lodging only – there is no food included in this.  However, if that’s a sticking point for you I would be glad to throw in a case of Ramen Noodles!

WAYS TO WIN: There are two ways to win one of the resort certificates:

#1 – We will hold a drawing of all of the UNTICKETS purchased during the UNRAFFLE. We will make this available live on the internet so everyone can see the validity of the drawing.

#2 – We will give one of the resort certificates automatically to the person/family that DONATES THE MOST. If you give $200 (that would be 8 UNTCKETS) and nobody else surpassed that – you automatically win one of the resort certificates.

TIMELINE: The UNRAFFLE begins today and will end on Friday, October 3rd at NOON (central time).  The drawing will take place later that same afternoon.

HOW TO PAY:  You can click on that fun DONATE button on the top right to pay via pay pal or credit/debit card OR you can email me (bseay@us.ci.org) and I will give you an address where you can send a check.

Please let me know if you have any questions and we thank you in advance for being a part of our adoption process.
