BUY YOUR RAFFLE TICKETS ONLINE - Just go to http://www.onelesscar.org/support_donation.php and make a donation based on the number of tickets you want (i.e. at $5 per ticket a $50 donation = 10 raffle tickets).
GET A RAFFLE TICKET FOR FREE - Join One Less Car between now and December 1st and you will receive a free raffle ticket. This applies to new memberships only. (Continue reading to see the new benefits of membership in One Less Car.)
SELL RAFFLE TICKETS AND WIN - The person or group that sells the most raffle tickets (over $500 in value) will win a $250 gift certificate! The gift certificate will be to a local independent business of the winners choice.

You can contact David Schapiro at dschapiro@onelesscar.org or Richard Chambers at rchambers@onelesscar.org for more information.
WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?
With part of the proceeds from this raffle One Less Car will be buying 12 bicycles (or 24 if 5000 tickets are sold!) for Baltimore City children from lower income homes. One Less Car believes that every child should have the joy of riding a bike. It is also our way of promoting healthier living by helping to fight childhood obesity.
Not only will OLC be buying 12 bikes (including all safety equipment) for the children, but their families will receive a $100 gift certificate to a local grocery store to go towards their holiday meal.
Other projects of One Less Car supported by this raffle include:
- Scholarships to children for Tour du Port
- Scholarships to children for CAM
- One Less Car Education and Advocacy Programs
