Corvette Raffle

Motivational Recovery Environments, Inc. DBA KiDS NEED MoRE (MoRE), a tax exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, is conducting the Corvette Car Raffle to raise funds for charitable purposes. The Rules and Regulations of the Raffle are set forth below. By purchasing a Raffle ticket the purchaser agrees to be bound by these rules and regulations. MoRE’s interpretation and application of these rules and regulations shall be final.

The Drawing for the Raffle will be held when 300 tickets have been sold. Tickets will not be sold after 300. The drawing may be open to the public, but the winner does not need to be present to win.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has taken the position that amounts paid for chances in raffles, lotteries or similar drawings for valuable prizes are not gifts, and consequently do not qualify as deductible charitable contributions.

The Prize winner of the Car shall assume all fees, local, state and federal taxes, sales tax, financing costs which must be paid prior to the Car being transferred to the winner. MoRE takes no responsibility for any tax liabilities or costs. Consult your tax advisor. This offer is void where prohibited by law, and all federal, state, and local laws and regulations apply.

By entering this raffle, entrants accept and agree (1) to be bound by all the rules, limitations and restrictions set forth here and (2) that their names and/or likenesses may be disclosed to and used by the news media and may otherwise be used by MoRE for publicity purposes and in lists of prize winners to be published in area newspapers and announced on the MoRE website. Other rules and regulations may apply. Please contact MoRE if you have questions. MoRE’s interpretation and application of the rules and regulations shall be final.

By entering this raffle, each participant releases MoRE, its directors, officers, employees and agents from any and all liability for injuries, losses or damages of any kind caused by participating in the raffle or winning the CAR or resulting from acceptance, possession, use or misuse of the prize, and the winner agrees to indemnify and hold MoRE harmless from any and all losses, damages, rights, claims and actions of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of participating in the raffle or the winner’s acceptance or use of the prize.

Tickets:

If the name of more than one person is submitted with a ticket purchase, and that ticket is selected as a winning ticket, then the person named first will be deemed the holder of record of that ticket and declared the winner. Division of prize by a group purchasing a ticket in common shall be the sole responsibility of the person named as the holder of record of that ticket, should that ticket be selected as a winner.

MoRE reserves the right to reject any entry form that is submitted with payment that does not constitute “good funds”. All defective or physically altered raffle tickets will be immediately disqualified by MoRE.

A raffle participant’s sole and exclusive remedy for MoRE’s breach shall be limited to the return of the purchase price paid for his or her raffle ticket(s). In no event shall MoRE, its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives be liable to any party for any loss or injuries to earnings, profits or goodwill, or for any incidental, special, punitive or consequential damages of any person or entity whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
