It depends on which way you think you can create the most excitement and participation. What works for one group may not work for another because of all the variables involved. But consider that running just one raffle with two Grand Prizes will raise the chances of winning anything for everyone, which may create more buzz, which may lead to more ticket sales. It'll also make marketing easier. If you decide to run two campaigns, would it matter if you sold many more tickets for one prize than the other? Would it matter to the donors of the prizes? Regardless if you run one or two raffles, in order to reach your goals, consider defining a minimum number of tickets that need to be sold before prizes can be awarded (if your state's rules for raffles allow this). Good luck with your campaign! We'd love to hear back from you about the outcome! This one may be hard to predict.

They have very different target audiences but both are connected with travel. Our organization members would prefer that we run two raffles, one for each prize. We are trying to determine if it would be better to combine the prizes into one raffle with more tickets or higher price even though the appeal of the two prizes do not overlap.
