Hi, posting this on behalf of a local wargamer, who is running this charity event:
Hello, I would like to introduce you to our charity project, Operation Good Cause.
We are raising funds that will go to the International Committee of the Red Cross. For that, we have assembled a huge 28mm WW2 US army from our collections and from donations, which we will give away in a raffle soon.
You can get raffle tickets by contributing to our fundraiser. This is possible through PayPal on our website (there is a button on the top right, if you can't see it, switch from mobile to web view). PayPal also allows you to use a credit card if you don't have an account.
One ticket for the raffle is 2 NZ-$, which I about 1.35 US-$ or 1.20 Euros. Multiples of that give you multiple tickets, e.g. 20 NZ-$ give you 10 tickets.
Raffle tickets are available until
Saturday, June 8th, 8 PM CST (Beijing), 1 PM BST (London), 8 AM EDT (East Coast USA), 5 AM PDT (West Coast USA).
The winner will be drawn using a random number generator on Sunday, 9th of June.
The army will ship anywhere in the world for free, and it will be completely painted and ready to go.
The breakdown is:
70x Airborne miniatures
41x Army miniatures
25x Rangers miniatures
57mm ATG
75mm pack howitzer
2x M3 Halftracks
2x Jeeps
