We often get asked about raising funds through raffles, bingo, and Monte Carlo events. They are all fantastic ways to raise money for your organization. What is often less known, is how to effectively partner with the Oregon Department of Justice in order to ensure that your gaming fundraiser is done legally and in compliance with any license requirements and tax considerations.
The DOJ is a fantastic partner for non-profits as they navigate these details, and are offering a FREE faming fundraising training. If you’re thinking about any of these activities, this is a great way to get all the information you need to be successful.
They will cover:
• Is it a regulated gaming event?
• Who qualifies to hold a gaming fundraising event?
• How do we put on an event and be sure we’re in compliance with gambling laws?
• Is a license necessary?
• How do I apply for a license?
• Ticket disclosures, prize limits and other legal stuff
• How to prepare the required records and reports
• Tax considerations
• I need help, who do I call?
