In the spirit of the holiday season, I'd like to raffle off a VRP Carbon Fiber Engine Cover. This is valued at $500..

I will even pay the shipping to send it to the winner.

Originally, I was going to just raffle it off and that was it. To make it even better, I'd like to raise some money for a worthwhile charity while we are at it.

I figured we could hold the raffle and charge $10 per ticket. You can enter as many times as you like.

All the proceeds of the raffle will be donated to: SickKids Foundation and made under the name "MBWorld Community". This will be a nice christmas gift from all of us for all the children that are ill.

To learn more about the foundation, you can visit their website: http://sickkidsfoundation.com

I'd like to raise $1,000 for them so we need to sell 100 tickets!!!

Here is the link to purchase the tickets: http://69.17.158.20/vrus/charitygiveaway.htm

NOTE: Please make sure you enter your MBWorld screenname in the notes section so I know who you are!!

EDIT: One more thing.. If you can, pass the link around to your friends for the purchase page.. If they are not a member of the board, they can still enter the raffle... Let's see how much money we can raise for the foundation between now and Christmas!

I am going to wait until December 24th to make the donation.

I will post daily totals of how much money was raised and the list of names that contributed!!

Here is a picture of what we are raffling off:

Yeah.. Me too... I am thankful everyday that my little guy is healthy.. I know some that are not so fortunate and maybe this little token will help them.

Here is my son now at 11.5months old.. Seems just like yesterday that he was born...

Wanna make sure I chime in that I requested not to be included in the raffle, but V talked to me and we decided that if I should get lucky, we can at least sell-off the unit for cheap and still get even more money for these sick punkins.

Instead of Paypaling 10x (10$ a ticket), I just shot V the cash 1x on separate Paypal transaction. If you guys feel led, feel free to do the same.

Awesome idea Victor!

vrus

FYI.. I fixed the BUY NOW button so that it allows you to put in whatever quantity you like.. Thanks for the suggestion Jim!

Also, I really appreciate the selfless gesture of not wanting the raffle tickets. All the more reason why I want to add your name to the list..

Thanks to everyone that contributed!

FYI: Rock's $200 is already in the possession of SickKids foundation. Since he didnt have a paypal account I hooked him up directly and he submitted his money online to them.

This is awesome... We are only $60 away from the $1000 target and still almost 3 weeks left!!

Really appreciate all the support guys! There are a great bunch of people on this forum!!
