    DRAWING: Winners of the daily Prizes of the \u201cRaffle\u201d will be selected based on the daily drawing of the Massachusetts State Lottery Daily Numbers Game each day in JUNE 2023, Evening Drawing, first three digits in exact order. The winning \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket numbers will be posted by S.O.N.G., INC. on www.supportingorphans.org during the month of JUNE 2023. Winners of each daily Prize of the \u201cRaffle\u201d will attempted to be contacted by S.O.N.G., INC. within 48 hours. S.O.N.G., INC. shall have the sole discretion to determine whether each Winner is an Official Winner of a Prize (an \u201cOfficial Winner\u201d). S.O.N.G., INC. \u201cRaffle\u201d Committee\u2019s decision concerning the identity of all Official Winners shall be final and binding. To become an Official Winner: (1) a Potential Winner must be eligible to participate in the \u201cRaffle\u201d under these Official Rules and must not be in violation of these Official Rules as determined in Sponsor\u2019s sole judgment; and (2) that Potential Winner must provide Sponsor with all tax identification information required by federal, state or local law and, where applicable, provide Sponsor with payment for any required withholding taxes due prior to that Potential Winner\u2019s receipt of the Prize. If for any reason whatsoever all the foregoing requirements are not satisfied with respect to a particular Potential Winner, or if Sponsor is unable for any reason to identify the holder of a winning \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket or to contact a Potential Winner, then that Potential Winner\u2019s Prize will be deemed forfeited and, the Prize will be retained by the Sponsor for charitable use. All JUNE 2023 Calendar Raffle tickets will be attempted to be sold by MAY 31, 2023. JUNE 2023 Calendar Raffle Tickets may be purchased after JUNE 1, 2023, with the purchaser being informed that their chances are diminished as each day passes into JUNE 2023. Any and all unsold tickets each day in JUNE 2023 that are determined to be the winning ticket drawn any day in JUNE 2023 shall be determined UNSOLD and the Prize for that day shall be retained by the Sponsor for charitable use. Sponsor shall use the following rules to determine the identity of any Potential Winner and of the JUNE 2023 Official Winner of each Prize: (1) Sponsor shall conclusively presume that the person who is in possession of that \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket is the lawful owner of that \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket and that ticket\u2019s winning number, and that the lawful owner and holder\u2019s name and contact information match the raffle ticket stub filled out at the time of purchase, and the Sponsor shall not make, nor have any duty to make, any inquiry whatsoever into the circumstances under which that person came into possession of such winning \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket. In the unlikely event that an error or problem in the administration of the \u201cRaffle\u201d results in two (2) or more \u201cRaffle\u201d Ticket purchasers holding winning \u201cRaffle\u201d Tickets that contain identical Ticket numbers, then the S.O.N.G., INC. \u201cRaffle\u201d Committee shall determine the winner(s) and what the winning Prize shall be.<\/p>\n

    AWARD OF PRIZE(S) TO OFFICIAL WINNER(S): A Prize will be awarded to each Potential Winner who has been designated by Sponsor as an Official Winner. All prizes will be sent to the Official Winners via check within thirty business days of the date of the winning drawing. For security and safety reasons, no cash payments will be made to winners.<\/p>\n

    TAXES: All federal, state, and local income taxes are the sole responsibility of each \u201cRaffle\u201d winner. The taxable value of the Prize will be treated as ordinary income to the winner for federal and state income tax purposes, and the Internal Revenue Service takes the position that no portion of the ticket price will qualify as a charitable contribution for federal income tax purposes. Each winner will be required by law to pre-pay a portion of the tax liability (as determined by state and federal laws) incurred in connection with his\/her receipt of the Prize before receiving his\/her Prize from Sponsor.<\/p>\n

    GENERAL CONDITIONS: The Released Parties (defined below under \u201cRELEASE OF LIABILITY\u201d) are not responsible for: (1) Entries which are stolen, lost, damaged, illegible, given away or no longer in the purchaser\u2019s possession, (2) Entries that have been or may have been tampered with or re-sold in
    violation of these Official Rules; (3) Entries or payments that are delayed, misdirected, lost, interrupted, undelivered, not fully captured, or garbled as a result of any failure or problem whatsoever with the availability, functionality, operability or use of any network, server, ISP, website, computer, telephone,

If any portion of the \u201cRaffle\u201d is compromised, in Sponsor\u2019s sole judgment, by a virus, worm, bug, non-authorized human intervention, or other causes which, in Sponsor\u2019s sole judgment, corrupt or impair the administration, security, fairness, or proper play of the \u201cRaffle\u201d, or the proper submission or capture of Entries (collectively, a \u201cCompromising Event\u201d), then Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend, modify or terminate the \u201cRaffle\u201d, and to select winners from all eligible, non-suspect Entries received before the known occurrence or discovery of such Comprising Event.
