ased upon ethics, morals, social responsibility<br />
and transparency. We didn’t want to<br />
repeatedly ask for money so instead have<br />
gone for a monthly commitment model<br />
which aims to reward loyal support. We give<br />
a greater percentage to UK Good Causes<br />
than any lottery and we also retain the lowest<br />
percentage for our total operational costs.<br />
We also do not operate a rollover with our<br />
Veterans Raffle, which means there's a winner<br />
every draw. <strong>No</strong> prize is ever shared.”<br />
So it’s fair all round then?<br />
“Absolutely. Entries, draw results and prize<br />
notifications are electronic which means that<br />
there's never a lost ticket. You don't need a<br />
membership card and you never have to<br />
check the results yourself to make a claim<br />
either. YES Society does absolutely everything<br />
for you, from start to finish!”<br />
Founder: Christopher Hearn<br />
How do I support the Veterans Raffle<br />
what they actually do with it is fairly limited<br />
and proportionately only helps a small<br />
amount of people,” says Chris. “In my<br />
research I’ve found some brilliant smaller<br />
charities that do so much with so little but<br />
could help so many more if they only had the<br />
extra funds. All the charities we’ve currently<br />
selected to support are specialists in their<br />
field and we know exactly where their funds<br />
are prioritised. We will work closely with<br />
these & other charities to help secure their<br />
future and to continue to provide much<br />
needed support to those in greatest need.”<br />
So why should we play the YES Society<br />
Veterans Raffle then Chris?<br />
“YES Society has built its Veterans Raffle<br />
To keep things both simple and fair, everyone<br />
subscribes to donate exactly the same<br />
amount (£10) per month via the YES Society<br />
website, using the most secure payment<br />
method available today (Direct Debit). <strong>No</strong><br />
commission is paid to any third party retail<br />
outlets. <strong>No</strong> cash, card or cheque options so<br />
your donations can't go astray, and the vulnerable<br />
are protected too. It has to be the<br />
simplest and safest registration processes<br />
available.<br />
