About
We’ve sold out! Thank you! We’re helping a lucky raffle winner win a build-your-own Tesla dream car OR win a 2022 Launch Edition Rivian pickup truck. (The Rivian is nearly impossible to get, so we went out and bought one in advance.)
This raffle helps our scrappy non-profit raise funds to fight climate change. It’s a win, win, win. This is the 4th annual electric car raffle sponsored by the Chesapeake Climate Action Network Action Fund (CCAN Action Fund). This year, we sold just 5,500 tickets. The lucky winner gets to pick the vehicle they want.
This can be a build your own Tesla, picking the color, tires, and other features up to a value of $135,990. OR the amazing Launch Edition Rivian pickup truck. It’s green, loaded with features, has only 64 miles, and we’ve got it in safe storage.
But wait! There’s more. We’ll also pay federal and state taxes, bringing the full prize value over $190,000. All this for a raffle ticket of just $200. And all proceeds go to fund our non-profit mission to save the world.
The mission of CCAN Action Fund is to create a world where electric cars, wind farms, and rooftop solar power are the norm in society. If you win, you can kiss high gas prices goodbye today while helping us build a pollution-free world tomorrow.
Win your dream Tesla OR win a Launch Edition Rivian pickup truck. You decide. Tickets are just $200. Upon winning, you pick your vehicle.
