Ladies and Gentlemen,
You may have seen me mention before - my wife will be walking in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure in Boston this summer. Her team has set a fundraising goal of $10,000, and our efforts are now in full swing.
At Arisia, a sci-fi convention in Boston (on January 13-16) we'll be holding a fund-raising raffle, and you can buy tickets too!
Some of our prizes include:
And a couple of crowning glories:
And more prizes are still coming in. If you've got a prize you'd like to donate, you still can! PM me!.
Ticket Prices:
1 ticket - $1
6 tickets - $5
13 tickets - $10
30 tickets - $20
Tickets can be purchased via Paypal*. Since Paypal does take a cut from each transaction, if you wish to pay via Paypal you do need to purchase a minimum of $10 in tickets.
If you want to purchase tickets, please leave a comment here or send a PM telling me how many tickets you are purchasing. Send paypal payments to arnis_public*at*comcast*dot*net.
If you'd just like to donate, and not mess around with charity raffles, please visit http://www.the3day.org/goto/drbecky2012
*Tickets may be purchased at the convention, of course. We can also take payment by check, though we'd require that your payment arrive before the convention - please PM me for details.
