Football fans can earn a once-in-a-lifetime experience of enjoying an English Premier League (EPL) match between Chelsea and Manchester United on October 23 sitting beside Bollywood superstar Abhishek Bachchan at Stamford Bridge in London just by spending Rs.300, claims online raffle organisers buymytime.com.

The website, based out of Bengaluru and Mumbai claimed that it uses the proceeds from the ticket sales for charity to the Samarthanam Trust for the disabled. Four lucky users will be selected through an online, automated process for a dream experience with various celebrities.

The Samarthanam Trust supports the visually impaired, disabled and underprivileged by providing them with education, vocational training and placement-based rehabilitation to help them achieve personal independence.

 

"The inspiration for the concept came to me from the yearly lunch Warren Buffett auctions for the benefit of Glide Foundation. It is amazing how it has empowered the Glide Foundation over the years - raising more than $3 million dollars this year alone," buymytime.com MD Sampath Kumar said.
