Raffle for a non-profit?

Hi gentlemen, I'm looking to set up a raffle for a non-profit organization. (It will be one of my knives, with the money raised going to a NPO that recently got robbed.) I'm a little confused as to how to go about this and accept payment, keep everything transparent, etc. Or maybe it would be easier if I just offer the knife for sale outright and let the buyer send the funds to the NPO?

Thanks!
 
James,
We have been struggling with this same dilema for the KD Charity raffles and it seems the best way would be for people to send the funds directly to the NPO. If they have a paypal acct, that is even better.

If you run it through your paypal, you run the risk of losing your account, Unless you are a NPO, they don't care.

If you choose a raffle, you can have people send checks or money orders made out to the NPO and you can forward them when the raffle is done.
