Charity gambling is a "form of incentivized giving" where a charity (or a group of charities), rather than a municipality or private casino, oversees gambling activities such as bingo, roulette, lottery, and slot machines and uses the proceeds to further its charitable aims. ==Characteristics== Charity lotteries tend to:〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.acleu.eu/Charity-Lotteries/Definition-of-a-charity-lottery.htm )〕 * Be privately operated without political interference * Not retain private profits (i.e., the primary aim is to raise funds for the charity) * Donate "a substantial part" of the funds to the charity (according to the Association of Charity Lotteries in the European Union, "ideally, the operational costs of the lottery do not exceed 20% of turnover, with the remaining 80% equally divided between donations to charities (40%) and prize money (40%)")〔 * Support a charity's overall objectives, rather than specific projects or activities * Provide long-term funding prospects as a "reliable partner" As a form of incentivized giving, supporters are rewarded, which makes it more likely to draw donations from those who may not have otherwise. Furthermore, charities can add these donators to their database and reach out to them in other fundraising capacities. Philanthropists like this method of fundraising because it is a "predictable way of generating income". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「charity gambling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
