The executive council for Yuri’s Night, The World Space Party, is pleased to announce the launch of a new fund-raising campaign at SpaceRaffle.net, the world’s first long term raffle campaign supporting a space cause.

Starting with a raffle of up to $500 in travel / accommodation funds to attend any Yuri’s Night celebration, the Space Raffle plans to follow this with raffles of Zero Gravity flights of the same type of airplane traveling in parabolic flight patterns simulating weightlessness that NASA uses for microgravity experiments and the training of astronauts.

The long term goal is to support as many Yuri’s Night parties around the world through these raffles as we can, and eventually to host the world’s first Zero Gravity Football charity tournament with raffle winners in teams competing on behalf of their favorite space cause. Support Yuri’s Night today by buying a ticket on http://SpaceRaffle.net now!
