what you'll do
Aaron Judge just recruited an all-star talent for his softball team: YOU. All rise! You and a friend will join Aaron in New York for a private softball game and the chance to get to know the Yankees outfielder on a personal level. After you guys crush it on the softball field, you’ll watch Aaron crush it in the big leagues when you head to Yankee Stadium® as Aaron’s VIP. And we mean VIP: You’ll watch batting practice from the field and catch the game from some of the best seats in the house. Fingers crossed you see Aaron hit one (or two or three) out of the park. Flights and hotel included.This campaign was brought to you through a partnership with Pepsi®.
No donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.

“If there’s a kid that’s struggling in school and going down the wrong path, and they’re able to get into this program and we’re able to motivate them or inspire them to change their outlook or get a chance to go to college or work toward a job they want to go to, that’s changing a life, that’s what it’s about.” –Aaron Judge

At Omaze, we believe fundraising should be about impact, not percentages. Our model allows us, in partnership with Charities Aid Foundation America (we call them CAFA), to really make a difference and disrupt the way society traditionally thinks about charitable giving.
Here’s how it works: Omaze and CAFA work together to offer incredible prizes and experiences that anyone can potentially win. You don’t have to donate to enter, but if you do, your donation to CAFA is then used to make a charitable grant to a great cause, which we love. Omaze pays for everything that’s needed to run the sweepstakes, which means the only ones taking a chance are the entrants (you!)—not the charity. The nonprofit can spend less time worrying about raising funds, and instead focus their energy on doing awesome work.
*This means that for the typical campaign, from every dollar you donate, 60 cents is passed directly through to CAFA, all of which is then used by CAFA to make a grant to the associated charity. If there are multiple charities, then grants of equal share are made to each charity. Of the remaining 40 cents, 25 cents is typically used to pay for things like advertising, payment processing and the costs of making the campaign a success—including providing the prize. Then the last 15 cents goes to Omaze and is used to cover the cost of providing and maintaining the technology and team that makes this all happen.
The result? Causes get a guaranteed grant with no risk and no overhead or investment, our lucky winners get awesome prizes, and everyone else gets to help a great cause and spread joy!
