GALAPAGOS DAY 2008 RAFFLE

Discovery Initiatives

Each year, GCT holds a raffle - a vital element of our fundraising efforts. We are delighted to announce that once again we have secured a top prize of a 7-night trip to Galapagos, which has kindly been donated by our sponsors Discovery Initiatives. All flights and accommodation are included and the cruise is on one of the best boats in the islands (for further details, see below). Where else can you have the opportunity to win a holiday of a lifetime for just £1?

The winner in 2006, Mr Meggitt, said to Discovery Initiatives: "I and my wife Bren wish to thank you for providing the fantastic GCT Annual Raffle Prize. After 40 years of supporting many charities' raffles, what a prize for a first win! The whole Ecuadorian venture was the experience of a lifetime."

Please help us to break all records for this year's raffle by selling tickets to all of your friends and family, not forgetting to purchase some for yourself - you must be in it to win it! You can also purchase tickets via our secure website at Galapagos Day tickets or to receive more by post please telephone 020 7629 5049 or email Abigail on abigail@gct.org.

We wish you all the best of luck in the draw, which will take place at Galapagos Day on 24 September.

Grace has a long history and was given as a wedding gift from Aristotle Onassis to Prince Rainer and Princess Grace of Monaco, hence her name. This vessel is where Prince Rainer and Princess Grace spent their honeymoon. In Galapagos, M/Y Grace will be one of the most elegant, beautiful and prestigious yachts on the Islands. The service onboard this ship, coupled with the true feeling of a safari experience, will be unlike any other experience that is currently offered in Galapagos.
