Post Making Wishes Come True...

Every once in a while, Rennlist is given a chance to help make a difference - and when those opportunities arise, it reminds both Jen and I - and many of you, I'm sure - as to why Rennlist is truly the most unique automotive enthusiast community on the Internet. Therefore, it gives me a great deal of personal satisfaction to make the following announcement....

Rennlist, in conjunction with Fathers & Sons Porsche and the Make-A-Wish Organization, is please to announce your chance at winning a new Porsche 996 Cabriolet, valued at $83,000. While only 1200 tickets will be sold, 100% of the proceeds from this Raffle will go to the Make-A-Wish organization. For details - please visit <a href="http://mall.rennlist.com/maw/" target="_blank">http://mall.rennlist.com/maw/</a> or <a href="https://rennlist.com/" target="_blank">https://rennlist.com/</a>

Briefly, as a Rennlist visitor or member, if you purchase a Raffle ticket - Rennlist is donating a complementary 2 Year Rennlist Membership with each pledge. This $32 value is yours free, simply as our way of saying "Thank You". Further, the winner of the Raffle will receive a Lifetime Rennlist Membership, which is a Membership Level that has never been offered "for sale" - but is our way of saying "Congratulations" to the lucky winner! Further - since you do not have to be present to win - Rennlist will oversee having your new Porsche delivered to your door via your preferred delivery method.

Fathers & Sons Porsche is one of New England's largest and most prestigious hi-line luxury and sports car dealers in NE. It is with great pride that Rennlist is able to work with Fathers & Sons, not only on this very special effort - but in the future as well. From here on, Fathers & Sons will be providing each and every new Porsche Owner and Customer information about Rennlist within their delivery package....

Make-a-Wish is a non-profit organization which needs no introduction - and has granted wishes to children with life-threatening illnesses to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. It is the largest wish-granting charity in the world with 79 Chapters in the United States and it's territories.

For an on-line pledge form and more information, please visit .<a href="http://mall.rennlist.com/maw/" target="_blank">http://mall.rennlist.com/maw/</a> or <a href="https://rennlist.com/" target="_blank">https://rennlist.com/</a>

My Best to all - and GOOD LUCK should you decide to help us in this outstanding effort!!!

When's the drawing - didn't see that tidbit on the info page?

Does this qualify as a tax-deductible donation?

Max, what link on the MAW site are you referring to? I saw nothing there that applied to this circumstance.

I'm reading between the line or in this case the symbols.

I meant the other right : D Look at those two little symbols under "What’s New". It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who pushed the hold button on this movie.

It’s understandable that in the thrill of the moment, faced with all those zeros in the contract some of the fine print gets over looked until something like this comes up.

Cheers

Max
