...and hopefully more to be added!!

Tickets:
- Tickets cost 1000 marks and there's no limit on how many you can buy!
- For every 10 tickets you will get a free bonus ticket (so if you buy 10 you'll get 11, buy 20 you'll get 22 etc)
- To purchase use: MARKS DEPOSIT <amount> TO JOYCO in multiples of 1000
- Van Moonchild will send out ticket numbers once your donation appears in the JoyCo account!

Deadline:
Tickets will be on sale until Sync at the end of Tera this year (//Monday 20th Apr). The draw will take place the following month and prize winners will be notified.

Proceeds:
All the money we raise will be split equally between three very important projects: the development of the JoyTech concert security system, the JoyTunes mentoring program for new musicians and a pot of money to help Gravity get back on its feet after the Scatterfest attack. So buying tickets will make a big difference to a lot of people!

Sponsorship:
Businesses and orgs! If you have something to donate - either physical items, marks, credits or an experience, hunting time, tutoring, commission or anything we mutually deem suitable really, let me know and I'll add your prize into the mix!
Sponsors will get a free raffle ticket and their business name added to the sponsor section on future marketing. As well as the affirmation that comes with knowing you're supporting a great cause!
