Who is Veterans Raffle?
A totally independent not-for-profit fundraising platform established to help UK grassroots veterans' charities that support our serving and veteran community within the Armed Forces, Emergency Services, Search & Rescue, Coastguard and Merchant Navy. Assisting those who are suffering from mental health-related conditions such as PTSD, complex injuries such as loss of limb and those who find themselves out of work and/or homeless etc. This is a national veterans lottery like no other; in the UK it apportions the highest combined percentage to charity & prizes, it has the best Jackpot winning odds, is the only UK veterans lottery to have the potential to award up to 8 Jackpots per month, (when entrant numbers permit), and has the lowest operational costs in the UK due to being cloud-based, (no office costs), is managed by remote volunteers and probably the only veterans lotteries not to have a 3rd party assisting the promotion of their veterans lottery or profiting from it; sadly unlike the silent majority of veterans lotteries.
Who benefits from Veterans Raffle?
Everyone benefits. Those who subscribe have the greatest chance of receiving a draw prize and those grassroot charities that are supported enjoy the largest combined percentage of any lottery's proceeds. There are a growing number of veteran charities benefitting from this additional fundraising platform and this is the only national veterans lottery that allows the public to select their own preferred veteran charity to support. Charity funding to individual charities is attributed according to supporter preference numbers, so the more support an individual veteran charity receives the greater their monthly funding. Veterans Raffle have no affiliation to any of their listed beneficiaries, which means that every charity is treated fairly and thus equally. Veterans Raffle funding is totally unrestricted and guaranteed on a month-by-month basis, unlike other veterans lotteries who often operate a grant application process that guarantees absolutely nothing!
How much of my donation goes to charity?
No other UK veterans lottery currently apportions a greater combined percentage to charity & prizes than Veterans Raffle and this is due to Veterans Raffle not having any 3rd party involvement. The simplicity of the Veterans Raffle funding platform helps security and keeps costs to an absolute minimum. Operational costs are around an industry leading 5%. As a result, no other UK veterans lottery can apportion anything close to our combined figure of ~95%. These are all-round exceptional figures when compared to any other UK veterans lottery, some of whom retain anything between 20% to 50% just for their operational costs.

Veterans Raffle guarantees that public support isn’t taken advantage of either by apportioning ~95% of the total proceeds to charity & prizes combined. Clear evidence that no organisation is profiting from the public donations.
