Entries may be purchased via the internet or the call center. Entry purchasers providing the Raffle with a valid email address will receive confirmation number(s) by return email. For all other entry purchasers, ticket confirmation number(s) will be mailed within ten (10) business days of purchase. This is the only confirmation that will be provided.

In the Raffles, there is no possibility of a tie. All draws will be under the supervision of the Administrator. Entry purchasers may win more than one prize. All time references are to Mountain Standard Time. All entries are nonrefundable unless the Raffle is cancelled by Special Olympics Arizona.

The odds of a single ticket winning a prize vary depending on the number of tickets sold and the phase (Appreciation, Early Bird 1 or Final) in which the ticket is purchased; however, the odds for the Main Raffle are never greater than 1 in 135. The odds for the Add-On Raffle are solely dependent on the number of tickets purchased and, because there is no limit on the number of Add-On Raffle tickets that can be purchased, the odds for the Add-On Raffle drawing cannot be estimated or guaranteed. 332 prizes will be awarded. Prizes may not be exactly as shown on the web site and are based on availability. If unavailable, similar or like kind prizes may be substituted at the sole discretion of the Administrator.
No prize carries an MSRP less than $50. Only specified prizes may be exchanged for a cash alternate prize. Prizes may also be donated back to Special Olympics Arizona. SPECIAL OLYMPICS ARIZONA MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY AS TO ANY RAFFLE PRIZE.
Vehicle Prizes: All vehicles come base model factory equipped unless otherwise noted and winner(s) are solely responsible for any and all state or local license, title, registration, cost differential between the value of the car and the cash alternate prize, taxes, or fees associated with the vehicle, as well as insurance (proof of which must be shown prior to delivery) and pickup or delivery costs at the dealership as well as any non-standard options chosen by the winner and negotiated with the dealership. All vehicles are subject to availability at the automobile dealer selected by Special Olympics Arizona and may be substituted with a comparable vehicle by Special Olympics Arizona or with the cash alternate prize.
Vacation Prizes: Vacation travel prizes are as described on the Raffle website. Travel is transferrable. Travel arrangements are made between vacation prize winners and the travel company hired by Special Olympics Arizona. Travel must be used within one year of the Special Olympics Arizona purchase date. All gratuities, taxes and fees are the responsibility of the winner and each vacation prize has a maximum value of no more than five thousand dollars in total.

Special Olympics Arizona will make reasonable efforts to contact prize winners using information provided on the entry form. If a prize winner does not contact Special Olympics Arizona within 30 days after the first initial contact notifying the prize winner of their winnings, then Special Olympics Arizona shall give notice to such prize winner by U.S. Postal Service certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address set forth in the information provided by the ticket purchaser. This notice shall state (a) the prize won, (b) a telephone number of a contact person at Special Olympics Arizona, (c) the time and location where the prize(s) can be claimed, and (d) that if the prize has not been claimed within 30 days of the date the notification is given, that Special Olympics Arizona may, at its option, retain the prize.
Special Olympics Arizona will not award a prize if the prize winner (a) was ineligible to purchase a ticket or otherwise enter the Raffle, (b) provided materially false or misleading information to Special Olympics Arizona in connection with the purchase of a Raffle ticket, or (c) if participating in this Raffle or receiving a prize is prohibited with respect to such person pursuant to these Rules or Applicable Law. No other Raffle ticket will be substituted for a Raffle ticket, and Special Olympics Arizona will retain the prize. A Ticket Holder cannot assign or transfer his/her interest in a Raffle ticket or a prize won by a winning Raffle ticket.
By entering the Raffle, entry purchasers agree that their information provided in connection with the Raffle entry may be used for communications promoting the Raffle and future raffles sponsored by or conducted for the benefit of Special Olympics Arizona. An entry purchaser may subsequently "opt-out" of the receipt of such communications by following the directions in any email, other communication or by contacting the Administrator (contact information below). Purchase of an entry in the Raffle constitutes permission for the Raffle and Special Olympics Arizona to use winner's name, address and/or likeness, in perpetuity, for purposes of advertising the Raffle or future raffles without further consent or compensation, unless prohibited by law.
Potential winners must complete all steps outlined in their winners' letter within the designated timeframe. If an entrant is found to be ineligible, or if a potential winner does not comply with the Official Rules, then the potential winner will be disqualified and the prize or a cash equivalent will revert to Special Olympics Arizona.
In the unforeseen event the Raffle is cancelled or cannot be completed, every effort will be made to refund the ticket purchase price to all Raffle ticket purchasers. Tickets purchased by credit card will be refunded to credit card holder's account. Special Olympics Arizona's liability to any ticket purchaser is the purchase price of the ticket.
Except as described in the previous paragraph, entry purchasers, by participating in the Raffle (and winners, by accepting a Raffle prize), release Special Olympics Arizona, partners, subsidiaries, agents, representatives, sponsors, service agencies and independent contractors, and each of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees and agents, including advertising and promotion agencies, from any and all liability with respect to participation in the promotion, possession, use and distribution of the prize(s) awarded.
The Raffle will pursue all available legal remedies against any individual(s) damaging or attempting to damage any Special Olympics Arizona Raffle website or attempting to undermine the lawful operation of the Raffle.

In the event a dispute shall arise between the purchaser and Special Olympics Arizona, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the raffle, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The place of arbitration shall be in the State of Arizona. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Special Olympics Arizona shall be in default or otherwise liable for any delay in or failure of its performance of the Raffle if such delay or failure arises by any reason beyond reasonable control, including any act of God, any acts of war, terrorism, the elements, earthquakes, floods, fires, epidemics, pandemics, riots, failures or delay in transportation or communications, or any act or failure to act by the other party or such other party's employees, agents or contractors.
Should a dispute arise between a purchaser and Special Olympics Arizona, purchaser agrees that all cases, controversies, and legal issues shall be governed by the laws and jurisdiction of the State of Arizona.
All winners shall be responsible for any and all federal, state and local income or excise taxes, fees, assessments and like charges associated with the prizes. All cash prizes will be paid net of applicable income tax withholding.
At the time of this printing, federal law requires that corresponding tax withholding on prize values of $5,000 or greater must be collected from winners upon award and distribution. Federal and state withholding laws are subject to change without notice. The withholding laws in effect at the time prizes are claimed will be followed. The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances to participate in raffles, lotteries or similar programs are not gifts and, therefore, the price of the entry does not qualify as a deductible charitable contribution.
