TERMS
You must be 18 years of age or older to participate in the SAHF car charity raffle.
All payments are non refundable. All communications, including the email ticket confirmation, will be sent to the email address supplied during the donation process. It is the donor's responsibility to provide a valid, deliverable mailing address and email address.
By entering the Raffle, the donor acknowledges that he or she is aware of and is bound by all of the official raffle rules.
A minimum of 3,000 entries must be sold to raffle the grand prize.
PRIZE
The Grand Prize Winner ("GPW") is entitled to the car or $15,000.00 in cash as an alternative. Within 30 days of notification by Share A Hand Foundation (“SAHF”), GPW may select the cash alternative by providing SAHF with e-mail notification of their selection of either: (i) the payment of the $15,000.00 cash prize will be made within thirty (30) days following SAHF receipt of GPW's notification of acceptance of this option. (ii) If the Car is selected, then the GPW will be informed as soon as arrangements are made with the dealer. GPW then must supply SAHF with any and all requested documentation. Car is subject to availability. Car comes factory equipped and winner is solely responsible for any and all shipping and handling costs and state or local license, title, registration, taxes, or fees associated with the vehicle, as well as insurance (proof of which must be shown prior to possession) and pickup or delivery costs at the dealership as well as any non-standard options chosen by the winner and negotiated with the dealership. The car is subject to availability at the automobile dealer and may be substituted with a comparable vehicle by GPW.
NOTIFICATION OF WINNERS
All winners will be notified via e-mail or by phone of the prize won and any requisite procedures to claim the prize. Winners will be required to pay shipping charges on all prizes. In California, winners may also be charged a state mandated disposal fee. Only winners' first name and last initial and locations by city or town, and state, will be posted via internet and in the official Facebook Account and the official website. If a selected winner is unable to be contacted or located after a period of forty (40) days from the draw date of any raffle drawing, the prize or its cash equivalent will be deemed to have been donated to SAHF for use by their charitable organization. All contact attempts shall be made to the address and email address provided by the raffle entry contributor. All winners, by entering, authorize SAHF to publish their name and likeness on the website and for it to be used in other promotional materials by SAHF.
TAXES AND IRS RULES
All winners shall be responsible for any and all federal, state and local income or excise taxes, fees, assessments and like charges associated with the prizes. All cash prizes will be paid net of applicable income tax withholding. The IRS requires that income tax withholding on prize values of $5,100 or greater must be paid upon award and distribution. Government rules governing withholding can change without notice. The Share A Hand Charity Raffle will follow the rules in effect at the time the prizes are awarded. The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances to participate in raffles, lotteries or similar programs are not gifts and, therefore, the price of the entry does not qualify as a deductible charitable contribution.
WAIVER/LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
By participating, you (and winner, by accepting a prize) release Share A Hand Foundation. and its respective board, committee members, volunteers, partners, vendors, agents, representatives, sponsors, service agencies and independent contractors, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees and agents, including advertising, public relations, direct marketing and promotion agencies, from any and all liability with respect to participation in the promotion and possession or use of the prize(s) awarded and also acknowledge that they did not receive any representations, warranty or guarantee, express or implied, in fact or in law, relative to any prize, including but not limited to its quality, mechanical condition or fitness. Any liability of SAHF shall be limited to ticket price paid and in the case of any dispute, SAHF decision shall be final. SAHF may at any time modify, revise, or update the Official Rules to correct any errors, omissions or changes to the Raffle, in its sole discretion. By participating in the Raffle you accept and are bound by its rules. Void where prohibited by law.
