[UPDATE] We also have a Microsoft Technet Subscription to give away.
The Food Bank fundraising raffle is ON, after our meeting this Thursday Dec 3rd!
The Victoria .NET Dev Association, the Victoria IT Pro group, and the Victoria Sharepoint group are all meeting on the same night and participating in the raffle. So far we have a bunch of leftover swag for prizes including Windows 7, Visual Studio 2008, Office 2007, and a good collection of misc t-shirts, books, hardware and other software (including XBOX360 games).
In addition, we've had someone donate a 5-inch USB lava lamp to include in the raffle (Thanks Ian!). If you'd like to contribute, either let us know or bring it with you to the meetings on Thursday.
Last time we did this, we raised $171 plus 2-3 dozen cans of food for the food bank:
A couple of notes:
- We will be capping the maximum number of draw tickets at 10 per person (tickets will be 1 for $2).
- We are not taking food donations this time, only because last time there was too many and we had problems getting them all to the food bank.
Please pass the word, we hope to get a great turnout and raise a good chunk of change for a good cause.
