Frequently Asked Questions

What are my chances of winning? How many tickets will be sold? We will only sell up to 2500 tickets — so your chances of winning are much higher than the lotter or most raffles of this kind.
Can I buy a raffle ticket for a friend or family member? Yes, you can — in fact, we hope you’ll gift tickets to all your loved ones!
Can I buy raffle tickets with a credit card or Pay Pal? Raffle ticket sales are cash or check only. So bring some $$ to church!
Why is UUCW doing this raffle? The Dinner for Two Raffle is a fund-raiser for our church operating budget — other congregations and non-profit organizations have used it successfully with the support of their members and friends.
Can I really have dinner ANYWHERE in the world? The travel agency we are working with will do their very best to make your dream dinner a reality. The prize dollar amount is intended to cover your travel and accommodations as well as the meal. See the Terms and Conditions for more information.
Is it only dinner for TWO? What if I want to take my whole family? You can take as many people as you want, as long as the expenses fit within the prize dollar amount! See the Terms and Conditions for more information.
What is the Prize dollar amount? The Prize grants the winner $6000, of which at least $3000 must be expended on travel and accommodations booked through our chosen travel agency. See the Terms and Conditions for more information.
