Ovarian Cancer Raffle for mint Moline poster!

edited June 2015 in Lost Dogs
Each summer I sell or raffle some of my Pearl Jam stuff for my Mom's ovarian cancer run/walk team. This year is going to be tough because my mom lost her battle with cancer April 29th at the age of 53 but that doesn't mean that we will stop raising money for cancer research. I am offering up one of my more desirable pieces of Pearl Jam merchandise, the a 2014 mint Moline poster!

UPDATE!
Another member has donated the 2012 Eddie Vedder Clearwater poster as a secondary prize! We will offer this as a runner up prize! You can see the poster at the link below:

Each raffle entry will be $5 so 2 for $10, 5 for $25 and so on. I would like to raise a minimum of $50 before the poster is raffled off. The run/walk is June 13th so I will draw the winner on that night and notify the winner after the drawing. Below is the link to our team page if you are interested in taking a look at what the run/walk is all about.

If you are interested in entering the raffle, just PM me and I will get you all of the details.

Thanks in advance!

Jeff

    I noticed this is your 3rd one on the boards in the last 3 yrs. Have you had much luck getting people to donate in years past?

    Thanks for sharing Jeff. My wife is a PT in the oncology unit of one of the largest hospitals here in Dallas and some of the stories she tells are very sad. I'd be honored to help out.

    In the past I have just sold items and donated the money to the team and that went pretty well. I'm hoping I can raise more money this year by offering up a pretty sought after poster but we'll see! There are some very nice people on these boards who just step forward and donate without wanting anything in return which is pretty special.

    Thanks to everyone who donated and made Saturday a special day! All of the teams combined raised over $50,000 which will hopefully get us one step closer to curing all cancers in the future. I'll be back next year with another Pearl Jam prize to raffle off so stay tuned!
