Before this gets off into another battle, there are two charities benefitting from the raffle. I'm posting this because some will (and probably have) already assumed there's some sort of political agenda and side-taking, without actually having read what's at Dale's website. There is not. From the Chiff and Fipple website, here is some info on the one in Northern Ireland:

The Children's Friendship Project for Northern Ireland, Inc. (CFPNI) is a peace and friendship building program that fosters understanding and promotes interaction between the Catholic and Protestant teenagers of Northern Ireland, their families, and friends. In an effort to break the cycle of fear and mistrust, teenagers in Northern Ireland, who show the potential to be future leaders, are selected and paired in cross-cultural teams to spend six weeks together during the summer in an American home where they can become friends in a neutral environment and can focus on their commonalities, rather than their differences. CFPNI sponsors numerous gathering in Northern Ireland, both before and after the summer, to build and sustain the friendships of the pairs, as well as to broaden cross-cultural contacts with other teens in the program, other family members, and friends.

The second charity is the RAPE RESPONSE program Birmingham, Alabama
