Are you going to donate any of the money from this sweepstake, which you are advertising here for free, to any one of the charities this forum supports?

My thoughts exactly, especially as Highlander is also running a competition for charity

[karaokemark]

I am a great supporter of the Childrens Charities in Calis, but I do feel every social event does not have to be about raising money for the charities. When we lived in the UK we had all sorts of sweepstakes etc. which were just done for the fun and benefit of the entrants.
Also Volkan and the staff at Vojo's are great supporters of the Embrace Children's charity, holding table top sales every Wednesday, acting as a drop off point for donations etc.

I agree with Mark, it's only a bit of fun and it doesn't always have to be for charity.

It's a bit mean to ask them to make a donation when all 1600 TL is being given back as prizes  

[JohnF]

At least we can agree, to disagree

Sorry but I am with John on this one. I don't think Vojo's should donate but maybe if say 50 lira was taken off each prize everybody would be a winner.

[JohnF]

Careful Nick, agreeing with me is often a bad life choice

But it is their sweepstake not ours! They are just telling people about it - it's no different to a quiz night or the like - and we don't ask for a donation to CBF's favourite charities when people use CBF to announce those!!

I'm with Scunner and Mark on this one. It's their own event and they're not making profit from their sweepstake. Too many fund raising events will only dilute the others.
