Having trouble buying raffle tickets? No worries! Our team is here to help!

How to correct the location requirement to buy a ticket.
Try a purchase on your mobile device.
- Turn off the internet on your phone, and switch to data.
- Go to the fundraising page and purchase a ticket.
Check your IP address.
Your IP address is the location of your physical device.

Still didn't work? Let's try one more thing!
Confirm your VPN has been turned off.
Most well-known antivirus providers offer a VPN as part of their security suites. Unfortunately, they identify your location as somewhere that you are not.
- Check which anti-virus provider you are using.
- Look up how to turn off your VPN service.
- Refresh your browser and complete your purchase.
Please note: you may have to restart your computer in order for your new VPN settings to be saved.
Turn your VPN back on after you've got your raffle tickets.
