charity raffle

Fundraising ticket draw

A charity raffle is a lottery where tickets are sold to raise money for a charitable cause, with winners drawn at random to receive donated prizes.

Organizations use them at fundraising events, auctions, and campaigns: We bought tickets for the charity raffle at the school carnival.

The appeal combines gambling's excitement with the comfort of supporting a good cause.
