Shawn's 24-Hour Birthday Fundraiser-Raffle & Livestream for Harvesters: The Community Food Network
Raffle tickets are $5 each or 5-for-$20, and can be purchased until the final prize is taken. The first prize will be raffled at 6:30 pm that Saturday evening, and will continue in regular intervals through 9:30 pm. You do not need to be (digitally) present to win; winners will be notified immediately and have until the time of the next drawing to select the prize of their choice from those remaining, or will default receive the next prize from the remaining list sorted from greatest-to-least estimated value if no response is received in time.
Updates:
10/5/2020: We've already raised/sold $200 in raffle tickets thanks to multiple kind donors! Thank you so much for your generosity! The easiest way to donate/buy your tickets is via the fundraiser post on the Facebook event page.
You might recall that in March, we raised something like $700 via a simulated March Madness tournament, and I'd love to beat that number with this event!

Livestream
The entire event will be livestreamed on Twitch.tv/shawnschaller, and I'll have it embedded here on the website and (if possible) on the Facebook event page as well. We primarily anticipate having an audience during the span of the raffle (6:30 - 9:30 pm CT), but will continue livestreaming games and miscellaneous through 9:00 am Sunday morning. The event will include several socially-distanced events with friends who plan to visit in shifts to enjoy some Beerio Kart, Smashed Bros, Drunken Wii Sports (I haven't thought of a clever name for that one), Magic The Gathering, board games, and potentially even live recordings of Avatar: The Last Podcasters, PokéMalarkey, and the current DnD campaign in which my wife and I currently participate. My goal is to release a fairly static schedule of events in the near future.
