Allow Online Raffle Purchases For Non-Profits In Washington State
The Issue
Per WAC 230-11-030, organizations with Raffle Licenses cannot sell raffle tickets online (as of 8/6/2020). (https://app.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=230-11-030&pdf=true
Due to the unprecendented challenges organizations are facing due to the Coronavirus pandemic and to ensure the safety of employees and volunteers, we are asking that organizations holding valid Raffle Licenses be allowed to sell raffle tickets online, provided compliance with all additional laws related to holding a legal raffle in the state of Washington.
The guidelines for reporting can still be met by allowing this safe and convenient way to continue the vital funding that raffles can bring to many organizations that serve critical purposes in our communities throughout the state.
