1/25/15 Update:
There's nothing I can say to express my amazement and gratitude to all the help here whether thru donation entries, donated prizes, bumps and everything in between.
This has been amazing.
Your help, you have all helped raise (before expenses are incurred for shipping etc): $2168. This is an amazing amount. Truly. THANK YOU EVERYONE for their help and assistance.

OYR is spending between $4000-$5000 each month on shipping expenses and purchasing care package items so this truly is of HUGE help!

With that said, the moment you have been waiting over a month for....the raffle results. With the grand prize selection where she can pick any prize from the list, our grand prize winner is: forum user "countonbothhands"

I will continue to draw winners and be in touch once it is your turn to pick from what's left of the prizes. Lots of prizes available so if you don't hear from me right away, it doesn't mean it's over and all is lost. It may take me a few days to notify you based on the winner before you replying.

next round of winners in this exact order for picking prizes after Count are:

VedderMTL
BadBrains
Andrew McCann (from Facebook)
Belinda Roberts (from Facebook)
JohnnieBeBlue
adusick
TH113769
PorchgirlCO
Unthought Known

For all the generous people listed above, you will hear from me when it's your turn to pick. More winners to be announced and to come once we clear out some prizes from above!!

THANK YOU EVERYONE. Much appreciation, love and gratitude to you all
This has certainly been the "best life we ever lived"
-EV

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I know it's a tough time right now with everyone spending tons of $ on me for the holidays (I'm a Medium) but I'm getting lots of pressure from a lot of generous friends and PJ fans to do another round of fund-raising where we have some great prizes (see below). We will leave this up for a while and well into 2015 to give everyone time to recover from the holiday expenses and give people a chance at participating.

1st Place Winner will get to chose from the list of available prizes. Next winner chosen gets next pick and so on until I am completely out of prizes! Special thanks to all of those who offered and donated items. We can't do this type of fund-raiser without your generosity so it's not lost on me. Chances are there are some prizes missing that I haven't listed yet or simply forgot to add so feel free to PM me if I missed something and we will update the OP as we go.

Every penny raised goes to Operation Yellow Ribbon to assist with our care package shipping expenses. For more on OYR, please visit:

LOTS and LOTS of runner up prizes too thanks to you all amazing supporters who have donated your merch and items to further help Operation Yellow Ribbon,
Participants are eligible to win lots of cool merch including the following:
