All entries received during the specified timeframe for a prize will be entered to win that prize. To be automatically entered, online donations must be completed no later than the end time of the specified prize.

Limit one entry per household.

Selection of winners

For each prize available, one entry will be selected from all eligible entries received in a random drawing to be a potential prize winner. The drawings will be held on or around September 25th, 2024. The drawings will be conducted by representatives of the sponsor whose decisions are final on all matters relating to this sweepstakes. The potential winners will be notified by email at the email address provided upon entry about one (1) day after the date of the drawings.

Verification of winners and delivery of prizes

Each prize may be awarded to an alternate winner if the affidavit/release is not returned within 24 hours after the prize notification e-mail is sent to the potential winner or if the prize notification email or the prize is returned as undeliverable. If a prize is won by a minor, it may be awarded in the name of a parent or legal guardian in sponsor’s sole discretion. Furthermore, if it is discovered that the winner resides in an ineligible country, the prize will be awarded to an alternate winner.

The sponsor is responsible only for prize delivery, not responsible for prize utility, quality or otherwise. Taxes and fees, if any, are the sole responsibility of the Winner.

Cancellation of a prize drawing

If an individual prize fails to be awarded and delivered to a winner of the sweepstakes after three potential winners are randomly drawn and either refuse to accept the prize or do not meet the eligibility requirements, that prize drawing may be cancelled. The prize will then be returned to the provider of the prize, or sold at online auction, with full proceeds from the auction being donated to the beneficiary. All costs of returning the prize or performing the auction will be covered by the sponsor.

Prize

The prizes and prize values are set forth in the chart linked to in the final paragraph of these Official Rules. The sponsor reserves the right to substitute prizes of equal or greater value.

In the event an individual charges back any donation, individual will be disqualified from the sweepstakes, and may be disqualified from future sweepstakes managed by the sponsor, at the sponsor's discretion.
