Hello, I'm wanting to hold a raffle for a small prize with money going to a local charity. I've just tried to set this up through my justgiving page but the charity isnt listed so it doesnt give me the option to hold a raffle.


So I basically want donations for tickets, then I select a random winner, they get the prize and the money goes to the local charity.


Any ideas how I can do this online.

You may need a licence from the local council to hold this type of raffle. I assume that it won't necessarily sell all of the tickets on the same day as the actual draw.

You definitely will need to take advice from your council. , its still gambling even if its a small raffle
