raffle
This term describes a specific type of fundraising event where the element of chance is used to generate revenue for a cause. It carries a community-oriented, benevolent connotation, typically associated with schools, charities, or local clubs rather than professional gambling or high-stakes casinos.
As a noun, it refers to the event or the system of ticket-selling itself. As a verb, it describes the act of offering a prize in this manner. It is distinct from a general lottery in that the prizes are often donated items and the purpose is usually philanthropic rather than purely for profit.
