What did one lemon say to the other during the race? “You’d better concentrate!”

Transparency Center

For every raffle we publish three records: where the prize came from and how it was graded, exactly how the drawing was conducted and witnessed, and where every dollar went after the event.

Prize provenance

Grading company, certification number, third-party lookup link, custody chain, and how the stated value was established.

Drawing evidence

Sealed roster hash, physical stub counts, drawing method and location, witness names, and independent auditor approval.

Financial waterfall

Gross ticket sales, refunds, processing fees, prize cost, and the net proceeds delivered to the nonprofit.

Raffle records

Standing commitments

Ticket revenue first pays prize costs and payment-processing fees. 100% of the remaining net proceeds go to the nonprofit. Actual amounts are published after every drawing — no fixed percentage of gross sales is promised.

Every paid ticket is matched to a numbered physical ticket stub. The physical stubs are the entries placed in the drawing container; the digital roster and its SHA-256 hash are a supplementary audit record, not a replacement for stubs.

The Lovely Lemon charges no platform fee. Its technology and marketing services are donated.

Purchaser names, addresses, emails, and order details are never published here. Winner names are not published; only the winning ticket code is disclosed.

The Lovely Lemon

Donated technology and marketing partner for municipally permitted nonprofit sports card raffles. The nonprofit is the sponsor, operator, and merchant of record. In-person draws only. The Lovely Lemon LLC is a Connecticut for-profit social-impact business — not a tax-exempt charity and not the raffle sponsor.

Demonstration only — no tickets are for sale and no payments are accepted. Raffles will be conducted under a municipal raffle permit issued by the City of Milford, Connecticut and held by the nonprofit operator. Ticket purchases are not tax-deductible. Winners must provide ID and IRS Form W-9 before a prize is released. Need-not-be-present-to-win. Void where prohibited.
