An Experiment

This is the plan...

My bright idea is basically a raffle with a little twist.

First, I will take the $100 seed money that was given to me and match it with $100 of my own money.

We are now at $200. This is the starting prize.

Anyone who participates in this experiment will have the chance to choose the charity that receives all of the prize money. No strings attached. Just tell me who you want it to go to, and I will donate it in your name. It's that easy.

To have a chance to win and add to the prize, just contribute at least $5. For every $5 donated, you will get a "ticket" and a chance to win the whole thing and help out your favorite charity.

Donate $10, you get two tickets. Donate $100, you get 20 tickets. You get the idea.

On April 5th, I will have a random drawing using the tickets that everyone "bought."

Donations can be made through the Donate Button at the top of the blog. PayPal will accept all major credit cards and direct PayPal payments of course. You can also mail a check to me directly (see profile for address) or give it to me when you see me.

I don't know exactly where this is going to end up, but I can't wait to find out!
