Tuff Car Parts $500 prize raffle - all proceeds to QLD Flood Relief Appeal!

[private9]

Dear fellow forum members,

As you will have seen very vividly across the news, the floods in Queensland are currently having a devastating effect on the local communities in this state. Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who has experienced loss through these tragic events so far. With more yet to unfold the aftermath is yet to be known and the Queensland community needs all the help it can get.

We would like to help raise funds for the QLD Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal and we are running a raffle to win a $500 Tuff Car Parts gift voucher.

The raffle opens now and entry is only $10 per ticket. Entry starts now and closes 9pm Wednesday 19th January.

All proceeds will be forwarded to the QLD Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal at the close of the raffle:
http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html

To enter, you simply need to email us for payment details (please include which forum you are from, username, your full name & contact details). Email to sales@tuffcarparts.com Please do not PM as email is much quicker for us to collate.

Payment is available either via bank deposit or paypal. You MUST use your username as the transaction reference. Payments without a reference will still be donated to the appeal, but will not be entered into the draw so please keep this in mind.

Communities have been devastated and many people have lost everything – this is a chance to make a difference – and remember a $500 Tuff Car Parts gift voucher is the winning prize!

Winner and funds raised will be announced here at the close of the raffle.

Thanks,

Justin.

Ok guys, if all payments come through, approximately $500 has been raised so far!

Keep up the great work, and please help spread the word, only a few more days to go!

Ok guys, entries officially closed 11.59pm Wed 19/1. As payments were made well into early Thursday morning, many of these will not clear until the end of the day.

So to be fair to all who have entered, the winner will be drawn and announced on Monday 24/1 and total funds raised will be announced (and donated) at the same time!

Sorry about the delays guys, had payments coming through yesterday so wanted to include them.

A total of $550 has been raised and this has just been donated to the QLD Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal (name has been changed to Premiers Disaster Relief Appeal).

Fantastic work and thankyou to everyone who supported this. On a slightly more disappointing note, we actually had double that amount in entries, but in the end only half the payments were received.


And the winner is......

Luke from NSW (Duke57TT on www.calaisturbo.com.au)
Have just spoken to the lucky winner, and he has very generously decided to donate back his $500 prize and we will raffle it off again to help raise more funds.

Congratulations Luke and thanks again for your generosity, it is very much appreciated!

The new raffle opens now and we will hold it open for 2 weeks from today, entries close 11:59pm Tuesday 8th Feb.

Thanks, but perhaps this is not the most appropriate thread to discuss this...
