Fundraising Opportunity #1: iPad Raffle!!!

As some of you may know I am training for my first marathon, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon on October 7th! In addition to my training I have taken on the task to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, as a proud member of Team in Training. As the largest and most successful endurance sports charity training program, Team in Training’s mission is to raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to help find cures and better treatments for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma (to learn more click here).


I am fourteen weeks into my training program and fundraising efforts and as each day passes I am becoming more and more excited about this journey; not only about the goal that I am accomplishing but also by the difference I am making in someone's life.

To help me reach my fundraising goal and to shake things up a bit I am going to raffle off a NEW iPad (16GB, Wi-Fi) in exchange for a donation.

Here is how it will work:

I am going to raffle off 50 tickets. The tickets are available for purchase price of a $30 donation.

Only 50 tickets will be sold, so you can enhance your chances of winning the more tickets you purchase!

The rules:

• The first 50 participants and/or tickets to respond to me by e-mail (janelle.brunke@gmail.com) and pledge a donation will be entered into the drawing. The first 50 participants and/or tickets will be determined by the time stamp in MY email inbox.
• I will confirm your participation with a direct message back to you (e-mail, etc.) with instructions on how to donate. If you don’t make it in the first 50 tickets I’ll let you know if there will be another drawing (if so, you’ll be entered for the next one - if you desire).
• You CAN pledge at a higher amount to be entered into the drawing multiple times.
• As soon as all 50 tickets are sold I will post a video announcing the lucky winner!
• The winner will be able to select the color and engraving text. The iPad will be shipped directly to your home from Apple.

Why pledge,  you ask?
1. To support a wonderful cause by helping me raise money for cancer research
2. The satisfaction of doing something good :)
3. And of course... a good possibility of winning a NEW iPad!

Happy pledging!

Please send along to your friends, family, coworkers, etc. And thank you for making a difference :)

If you already have an iPad and/or would just like to donate to my cause please let me know and I will direct you to where you can donate.
