U.S. company raffles off $3.5 million mansion for charity

The company Omaze, which has collaborated with stars such as Julia Roberts and Serena Williams, is promoting this kind of 'lottery' in which only UK residents can participate

Omaze, a company founded in the U.S. by Matthew Pohlson and Ryan Cummins, is conducting a lottery in Great Britain, offering a grand prize of a 3.5 million euro mansion in the Serra de Tramuntana, plus 290,000 euros in cash.

This renovated country house in Selva, with 1,700 square meters, four bedrooms, and a pool, combines a rustic style with modern comforts. Although a for-profit organization, Omaze also supports charitable causes; part of this lottery’s proceeds will aid Alzheimer’s research in Britain. The draw, exclusive to UK residents, reflects Omaze’s unique approach to fundraising: offering dream properties or experiences, like dinner with a celebrity, in exchange for donations.

This concept was inspired by the founders’ experience at a charity auction and has since grown to include collaborations with renowned celebrities and significant fundraising successes.
