Six BMW dealers in Sydney are donating the major prize in a raffle to be drawn at the Ronald McDonald House Charities NSW Gala Ball in September.
That prize will be a BMW 116i hatch, and the winner will be announced at the ball. The charity – associated with the fast food restaurant chain McDonalds – provides family members accommodation close to the medical facilities where their sick kids are being treated. This year's ball – 2014 marking the occasion of its 28th anniversary – will be held at The Star, 80 Pyrmont Street, Pyrmont, on the evening of Saturday, September 13.
MC for the ball is Channel 7 presenter Luke Jacobz, and The Potbelleez will be performing there on the night. Tickets for admission to the ball cost $350 each, but the raffle tickets can be purchased for just $50 each, which seems like an affordable investment for a one-in-3000 chance to acquire a $47,569 car.
The dealers supporting the charity are: BMW Sydney, Canterbury BMW, Col Crawford BMW, North Shore BMW, Sylvania BMW and Trivett Classic. Further information can be obtained from the Ronald McDonald House Charities website.
