what you'll get
When you think handmade, you might think of a delicious meal or your grandma’s quilts. But what you should be thinking of is Bentley. Better yet, your brand new 2020 Bentley Continental GT V8. This baby is completely handcrafted—from the elegant design features like the premium leather interior, walnut and chrome accents, and a sporty hardtop, to the high-tech advancements like the 12.3 inch hi-res touch screen infotainment system and the iconic Bentley puddle lights. And it delivers an irresistibly dynamic performance thanks to its four-liter twin-turbo V8 engine and all-wheel drive. The only thing that could make it more perfect? The $20,000 waiting for you in the trunk. Plus, we’ve got the car’s taxes and shipping costs covered.
No donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.

Transparency:
At Omaze, we believe fundraising should be about impact, not percentages. Our model allows us, in partnership with Charities Aid Foundation America (we call them CAFA), to really make a difference and disrupt the way society traditionally thinks about charitable giving.
Here’s how it works: Omaze and CAFA work together to offer incredible prizes and experiences that anyone can potentially win. You don’t have to donate to enter, but if you do, your donation to CAFA is then used to make a charitable grant to a great cause, which we love. Omaze pays for everything that’s needed to run the sweepstakes, which means the only ones taking a chance are the entrants (you!)—not the charity. The nonprofit can spend less time worrying about raising funds, and instead focus their energy on doing awesome work.
*Omaze also invests in securing the prizes for the typical Omaze Owned campaign, so for these, from every dollar you donate, 15 cents is passed directly through to CAFA, all of which is then used by CAFA to make a grant to the associated charity. If there are multiple charities, then grants of equal share are made to each charity. 70 cents is typically used to actually get the prize, process payments and advertise to awesome people like you (Omaze Owned campaigns require more significant marketing efforts by Omaze and do not rely (or rely to a much smaller degree) on the work and name of celebrities to help raise awareness and promote the campaign). The remaining 15 cents of your dollar goes to Omaze—it’s used to cover the cost of providing and maintaining the technology and team that makes this all happen.
The result? Causes get a guaranteed grant with no risk and no overhead or investment, our lucky winners get awesome prizes, and everyone else gets to help a great cause and spread joy!
