Then further below, we’ll describe all the Raffle details. If you enter the raffle (and why wouldn’t you?), please follow the instructions carefully, to ensure that you get entered according to your preferences. Ok, here goes…

Raffle Details
The raffle starts today, April 23, in celebration of Earth Day weekend which is the 11th anniversary of our group’s beginnings. It ends on May 15th, MPS Awareness Day 2023, at midnight that evening (Eastern Time or your local time, whichever is latest). The raffle is open to all John Mayer fans and fans of The Isaac Foundation, anywhere in the world. While we do insure and track U.S. shipments, please understand that the post office will not guarantee international deliveries and we have no realistic way to track them. We’ve never had an international winner who hasn’t received their merch, but keep in mind that it could happen and it’s totally beyond our control. It’s probably not a good idea to enter if you suspect that the merch won’t arrive due to your local situation. But if you want to join in the fun and take a chance, we welcome you. It’s all for a great cause.
For this raffle, we felt the need to do something really special. Maybe something that we’ve never done before. We wanted EVERYONE to be able to enter, so we created different levels of donations and customized entries. Please select the amount that you’re most comfortable donating and if there’s an option for which packages you’re entering, please tell us in your donation notes what packages you choose.
We prefer to run all our raffles using PayPal, because it allows us to track entries more efficiently. But if your country doesn’t allow PayPal, or you don’t have an account, you could contact us privately on Instagram to inquire about what other options you have. We’ll accommodate you to the best of our ability. For those sending a donation with PayPal, please send it “Friends and Family” to [email protected] . If you send it another way that incurs fees, please understand that our only option will be to ask you to cancel it on your end and resubmit it as F&F. We are unable to return the entry and ask you to resubmit it, because PayPal charges us fees for that too. Understand that you are donating (ultimately) to a charity, not buying goods and services from us. There will be only 4 winners, and if you aren’t one of them, your entry money will be sent to the charity in full. Please don’t enter the raffle unless you are completely okay with that!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now, here’s the fun part:
$5 donation = 1 entry each, into any 2 packages of your choice.
$10 donation = 1 entry each, into all 4 packages, OR…
2 entries each, into any 2 pkgs of your choice, OR…
4 entries into any 1 package of your choice.
$20 donation = 3 entries each, into all 4 packages.
$30 donation = 5 entries each, into all 4 packages.
$50 donation = 9 entries each, into all 4 packages.
$100 donation = 50 entries, your choice of how they get distributed
to the packages (you can put all 50 entries into
one package, if you want to!)
The drawing will be held after May 15th, as soon as all entries have been tallied and sorted. The drawing date will be announced in advance and then held via Instagram Live. Merchandise packages will be sent out to winners no later than May 31, 2023. (We take the time to package them up nicely for you with JM wrapping paper and some other goodies). Don’t forget to please drop us a private message over on Instagram, if you need other entry options.
