The raffle awards Bonus Cash for all prizes with a contracted value of $5,000 or more (net of the cost of the ticket). Bonus Cash is part of the prizes valued $5,000 or more and is awarded for the amount of federal income tax that the raffle is required to withhold on gambling winnings and to enhance the overall winner’s experience. Bonus Cash will be remitted directly to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on the winner’s behalf. Any additional federal or state income tax will be the responsibility of the winner.

Children’s Hospital Colorado Mighty Millions Raffle is an opportunity for the community to help raise funds for Children’s Colorado by buying a ticket for a chance to win incredible prizes. Net proceeds raised are used to support Children’s Colorado’s greatest needs, providing the hospital with resources to care for patients across a seven-state region.  

A Children’s Hospital Colorado Mighty Millions Raffle ticket purchase is not a charitable tax-deductible donation, but rather an opportunity to support the hospital through participation in a gaming event where ticket buyers have a chance to win prizes.  

Children’s Hospital Colorado is the only comprehensive nonprofit children’s hospital in a seven-state region. Every dollar raised from the community is used to further the hospital’s mission of caring for and curing children through providing high-quality care, education, research and advocacy.  

The net proceeds of the raffle, after prizes are awarded and expenses are paid, support Children’s Hospital Colorado’s Children’s Fund. The Children’s Fund is used to support Children’s Colorado’s greatest needs, allowing the hospital to improve the care offered to every child who needs us. The hospital strives to provide each child — as well as each child’s family — with the best possible healthcare experience and outcome. The Children’s Fund helps to do just that.
