This charity raffle offered participants the chance to win a 3-hour private cruise for 12 people aboard "Vintage," a 75-foot luxury yacht on Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. The prize package included a captain and crew, catered lunch, premium open bar, and access to water recreation equipment like floats, paddle boards, and a water trampoline.

Raffle tickets were $50 each, with the $9,000 value prize drawing held on August 2nd via live stream. All proceeds supported gene therapy research for Cri du Chat syndrome (5p minus syndrome), a rare genetic condition. The event departed from Burnham Harbor Drive in Chicago and used zero-fee fundraising platform Zeffy to maximize donations for research.

This fundraiser combined luxury entertainment with meaningful charitable impact, allowing supporters to enjoy Chicago's waterfront while contributing to important medical research.
