Can I offer contests that involve charity donations in Indiana? What are the requirements?

Here is what I found in the provided documents regarding offering contests that involve charity donations in Indiana:

Qualified organizations in Indiana are allowed to receive donations of alcoholic beverages in sealed bottles or cases from certain permittees, including wholesalers, retailers, and farm wineries, among others [1.1].

Qualified organizations may use their gross receipts received from an allowable activity for necessary charitable gaming expenses in reasonable amounts [2.1].

Lottery tickets may be donated to a nonprofit corporation by designating the name of the recipient nonprofit corporation in writing on the back of the donated ticket. The right to a prize on a ticket donated under this section accrues to the nonprofit corporation designated on the ticket [3.1][4.1].

An out-of-state charitable organization that is licensed to conduct a raffle under IC 4-32.3-4-10 shall sell tickets only for the raffle within the geographic boundaries of the state of Indiana [2.2].

Qualified organizations may conduct allowable single activities or exempt events in bars or taverns, including Indiana licensed casinos, subject to certain procedures and conditions [2.3].

Charity auctions to which IC 7.1-3 applies may be conducted on premises that are not licensed under this title for the sale of alcoholic beverages [5.1].

Based on the information provided in the documents, it appears that qualified organizations in Indiana are allowed to offer contests that involve charity donations, subject to certain requirements and conditions. However, the specific requirements for such contests are not explicitly stated in the documents provided. It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional for further guidance on the matter.
