Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver, Inc. ("BGCMD"), a Colorado nonprofit corporation and tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, is conducting the Summer of Fun Raffle (the "Raffle") to raise funds for its ongoing charitable activities and purposes. The rules (the "Rules") of the Raffle, set forth below, govern the Raffle, award of prizes, and participation in the Raffle. These Rules bind every person (a "Ticket Holder") who buys or holds a Raffle ticket. By purchasing or holding a ticket, each Ticket Holder agrees (a) to be bound by these Rules and (b) that BGCMD's interpretation and application of these Rules is conclusive and final.
Raffle Tickets are one for $10, 5-packs for $25, 15-packs for $50, and 45-packs for $100
Between 7/15/2024 and 7/19/2024, any multi-pack order received that uses the promo code SUMMER10 during an order will receive a 20-pack of Raffle Tickets for $25, a 60-pack of Raffle Tickets for $50, or a 180-pack of Raffle Tickets for $100
Between 7/20/2024 and 7/26/2024, any multi-pack order received that uses the promo code SUMMER20 during an order will receive a 15-pack of Raffle Tickets for $25, a 45-pack of Raffle Tickets for $50, or a 135-pack of Raffle Tickets for $100
Between 7/27/2024 and 8/2/2024, any multi-pack order received that uses the promo code SUMMER30 during an order will receive a 10-pack of Raffle Tickets for $25, a 30-pack of Raffle Tickets for $50, or a 90-pack of Raffle Tickets for $100
Multi-packs using promo codes must be purchased during the same order, using one method of payment, using the same name on each ticket and the same mailing address for each eligible ticket. Orders that do not use the aforementioned promo codes during the aforementioned dates, or orders that are received after the aforementioned dates are not eligible for multi-packs as noted above.
Only one Eligible Ticket Purchaser (as defined below in the "Eligibility" section of these Rules) may purchase a ticket. This means, (a) one name per ticket and (b) one purchaser per ticket. An Eligible Ticket Purchaser may designate another person a Ticket Holder. If a ticket names more than one person as a Ticket Holder and that ticket is a winning ticket, then BGCMD will (a) deem the person named first on the ticket as the Ticket Holder, (b) declare the first person named on the ticket as the winner, and (c) award the prize to the first person named on the ticket. In such case, the division of the prize shall be the sole responsibility of the first person named on the ticket. Once BGCMD awards the prize to the first person named on a ticket, BGCMD will have no further duties or obligations with respect to the division of the prize and all persons named on a ticket as Ticket Holders release BGCMD from all claims relating to the award of the prize or its division among other persons on a ticket named as Ticket Holders.
The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances in raffles, lotteries or similar drawings for valuable prizes are not gifts and therefore do not qualify as deductible charitable contributions.
To be eligible to purchase a ticket, a ticket purchaser (an "Eligible Ticket Purchaser") must (a) be at least 18 years old at the time of purchase, (b) be in the state of Colorado, and (c) not be precluded by Applicable Law (as that term is defined in the "Registration with the State of Colorado and Applicable Law" section of these Rules") from holding or purchasing a ticket or participating in a raffle.
If a ticket is purchased by an Eligible Ticket Purchaser who designates another person as the Ticket Holder, then that person must (a) be at least 18 years old at the time of purchase, (b) be a U.S. resident physically residing in state of Colorado, and (c) not be precluded by Applicable Law (as that term is defined in the "Registration with the State of Colorado and Applicable Law" section of these Rules") from holding or purchasing a ticket or participating in a raffle.
A person cannot be an Eligible Ticket Purchaser or a Ticket Holder if such person or holder is a person (a) with whom U.S. persons or entities are restricted from doing business under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC's Specially Designated and Blocked Persons List") or under any statute or executive order or (b) who is acting, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of any such person.
BGCMD employees and members of their household may not purchase a ticket and are not eligible to win a prize. BGCMD Board Members may not purchase a ticket and are not eligible to win a prize.
BGCMD reserves the right to require reasonable evidence of the eligibility of an Eligible Ticket Purchaser or Ticket Holder at any time and to void any ticket sold to a person who does not meet the eligibility requirements or who is precluded by applicable law from holding a ticket or participating in a raffle.
Eligible Ticket Purchasers may purchase Raffle tickets online at www.MileHighRaffle.com . At the time of purchase, Eligible Ticket Purchasers must provide their name, address, phone number, credit card number, credit card security code and expiration date, and such other information as BGCMD may require. Eligible Ticket Purchasers may not purchase tickets by mail, email, voice mail, or in person. All entries must include payment by credit or debit card.
Raffle tickets will be distributed and ticket numbers will be assigned in the order that payment is received. All payments will be deposited upon receipt. BGCMD reserves the right to reject any entry that it deems defective, ineligible, or submitted without "good funds."
In accordance with Applicable Law, BGCMD will not mail Raffle tickets to Ticket Holders. BGCMD will email unofficial Raffle tickets as receipts for ticket purchases to the Ticket Purchaser within one business day of purchase. BGCMD will mail unofficial Raffle Tickets as receipts for ticket purchases to the Ticket Purchaser upon request. If a purchaser does not receive his/her unofficial Raffle Ticket as noted above, please contact raffle@bgcmd.org. To win a prize, Ticket Holders do not need (a) to possess a hard copy of a Raffle ticket or a receipt in order to win and (b) do not need to be present at a drawing.
Each Raffle Ticket purchased before a deadline qualifies for all future drawings for which that ticket is eligible.
All Raffle Ticket sales are final. BGCMD will make no refunds except under the following circumstances: BGCMD will return any payment that BGCMD receives after the Final Ticket Purchase Deadline. No other refunds are available except at the discretion of BGCMD.

Any changes to the drawings will be posted on www.MileHighRaffle.com and purchasers will be notified by email or phone. A list of Raffle winners will be posted on the Raffle website (www.MileHighRaffle.com). The BGCMD Certified Games Manager(s) is the final authority in the event of any disputes regarding any of the drawings.
At each Drawing, a Raffle Ticket will be drawn at random for the prize. All winning tickets will be re-entered and will be eligible for all future Drawings.
BGCMD will make reasonable efforts to contact prizewinners using information provided on the winning entry form. If a prizewinner does not contact BGCMD within 30 business days after the first initial contact notifying the prizewinner of their winnings, then BGCMD shall give notice to such prizewinner by U.S. Postal Service certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address set forth in the information provided by the Eligible Ticket Purchaser. This notice shall state (a) the prize won, (b) a telephone number of a contact person at BGCMD, (c) the time and location where the prize(s) can be claimed, and (d) that if the prize has not been claimed within 30 days of the date the notification is given, that BGCMD may, at its option, retain the prize.
BGCMD will not award a prize if the prizewinner (a) was ineligible to purchase a ticket or otherwise enter the Raffle, (b) provided materially false or misleading information to BGCMD in connection with the purchase of a Raffle ticket, or (c) if participating in this Raffle or receiving a prize is prohibited with respect to such person pursuant to these Rules or Applicable Law. No other Raffle ticket will be substituted for a Raffle ticket, and BGCMD will retain the prize. A Ticket Holder cannot assign or transfer his/her interest in a Raffle ticket or a prize won by a winning Raffle ticket.
As a condition to being eligible to receive a prize, each prizewinner must sign and deliver to BGCMD: (a) a sworn affidavit of eligibility under these Rules and Applicable Law and satisfactory proof that he/she is the person named on the winning entry; (b) satisfactory proof that the purchaser of the ticket was an Eligible Ticket Purchaser at the time the ticket was purchased; (c) a publicity release, and (d) such other matters as BGCMD may reasonably request, such as proof of identification and proof of address to determine authenticity of individual claiming a prize. If the holder of a winning ticket does not provide the required information or does not otherwise comply with Applicable Law or these Rules, then BGCMD may, at its option, disallow the award of the prize to such Ticket Holder and retain the prize.
Winners of a Raffle prize authorize BGCMD to withhold all required amounts and report the award of Raffle prizes in accordance with Applicable Law. Currently, federal law requires that corresponding tax withholding on prize values of $5,000 or greater must be collected from winners upon award and distribution. Federal and state withholding laws are subject to change without notice. The withholding laws in effect at the time prizes are claimed will be followed.
Each Ticket Holder agrees their name, likeness, voice, and city of residence may be recorded by audio, video, or digital means and may be used in any print, audio, or visual media without notice or compensation for any purpose related to this or any other BGCMD Raffle or promotional materials.
Each Ticket Holder and each ticket buyer (a) agrees BGCMD, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives are not responsible for any injuries, losses, or damages of any kind arising in connection with, or as a result of, this Raffle and/or that person's failure to win or redeem any prize, or that person's award of, acceptance of, or use of, any prize; and (b) releases and agrees to indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless BGCMD and their officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, advertising agency, contractors, insurers, attorneys, accountants, and affiliated entities from and against all losses, damages, rights, claims, and actions of any kind arising in connection with, or as a result of, this Raffle and/or that person's failure to win or redeem any prize, or that person's award of, acceptance of, or use of any prize, or that person's failure to comply with Applicable Law; and (c) represents and warrants to BGCMD that they have read and understand these Rules and agree to be bound by these Rules and BGCMD's decisions, which are final.
The Colorado Secretary of State is the regulatory authority with jurisdiction over charitable gaming. If and to the extent the Secretary of State expressly deems a specific dispute between BGCMD and person purchasing or holding a ticket outside of the Secretary's authority, BGCMD and that person agree that if there is a dispute of any kind regarding the award of a prize or the conduct of the Raffle, BGCMD and all persons purchasing or holding a ticket agree to arbitrate such dispute. Such dispute shall be decided by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Denver, Colorado and the arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado. While such arbitration is pending, BGCMD, in its sole and absolute discretion, may deposit the prize with the then Clerk, or acting Clerk, of the District Court of the City and County of Denver, State of Colorado, interplead the parties hereto, and upon so depositing such prize and filing its complaint in interpleader it shall be relieved of all liability under the terms hereof as to the property so deposited. By the purchase of a ticket, all persons purchasing or holding a ticket (a) do submit themselves to the jurisdiction of said court and appoint the then Clerk, or acting Clerk, of said court as their Agent for the service of all process in connection with such proceedings and consent to the arbitration of disputes between them.
