​“Raffling various articles at meetings or other gatherings is a matter of autonomy but to avoid commercialism in the fellowship, it is suggested that these items relate in some way to our spiritual principles. Items such as Al-Anon or Alateen books, subscriptions to The Forum, or the donated products of the creative efforts of individual members are suggested. In keeping with our principle of self-support we do not solicit or accept items from outside the fellowship.”
Al-Anon/Alateen Service Manual (pg. 107)
​Raffle baskets, usually compiled by AFGs, are suggested to ”relate in some way to our spiritual principles."
Silent Auction items are suggested to come from “the creative efforts of individual members."
