Carlisle United Supporters' Groups (CUSG) have launched a Christmas Raffle which will be drawn on Wednesday 28 December.
Prizes have been donated by local businesses and tickets are now on sale for £1. All proceeds will go towards fan related projects.
Terry McCarthy, CUSG rep, co-ordinated the raffle and praised local businesses who have stepped up to donate prizes: "Given the tough economic climate, the response has been fantastic.
"Almost every call we made resulted in a positive response. We will give all these businesses some social media coverage and would welcome any more donations.
"There was a real willingness to support the initiative having seen the type of projects CUSG have delivered previously.
"Once we have the funds from the raffle, we will consider further fan related projects for which to use the proceeds.”

Tickets are available during the week from the Blues Store and Ticket Office, and home games will see a different approach, as Terry explained: "We have three home league games in December, and we aim to have fan reps all around Brunton Park selling the tickets.
"We know our fans will dig deep and help us raise a good amount. We appreciate that a lot of fans prefer to use cards rather than cash, so we will have card readers at Brunton Park.”
