Isara Video Equipment Charity Raffle

DV Info Net members are invited by DVX User to participate in a video equipment
raffle with all proceeds going to a charity organization called Isara which was founded
by P.K. Gillock, one of their long-standing members in Thailand. In order to facilitate
Isara's various projects, they need a van... they can buy one with $7500. Their goal
is to raise that money by raffling off $7500 worth of choice video equipment as prizes.
You can get in on the action for $5 just per ticket.

The raffle prizes have been generously donated by DVX User sponsors,
and it's quite a haul -- there's a lot of great gear that will be going out
to some lucky raffle winners. See the full list at the links below. The
drawings will be held on June 11th.

Buy your raffle tickets at Isara.org - Charity Raffle - Video Equipment
There are purchase links at the bottom right of each one of the prize
descriptions on that page.

Full details and everything else you need to know can
be found in the DVX User discussion thread is located at:
Video Equipment Charity Raffle - $7,500 in prizes - $5 Tickets!! - DVXuser.com
(since the charity organizers aren't members here, please
post replies directly to that particular DVX User discussion).

Thanks for participating,

An update from P.K. Gillock:

"Just wanted to give you an update on the charity raffle. So far we have raised more than $4,000!!! Since it didn't look like we would raise enough to get the used van, we decided to use the money to provide supplies to 158 Hmong refugees, donate helmets to students, and build a new classroom, storage room, and make some repairs to our free Learning Center. Unfortunately, the deadline is on June 10th and we still need another $1,500 to complete our new classroom."

Please refer to Isara Charity Raffle -- Phase Two for more details.
