    Will Yip has announced a raffle to raise money for the AAPI Community Fund.

    Today, Grammy-nominated producer and engineer Will Yip launches a massive fundraiser to support the Asian American & Pacific Islander Community Fund. Three lucky winners will receive one of three mega Grand Prizes including virtual Q&A's with Yip, rare items from Fender, Vans, and bands like Circa Survive, Title Fight, and Code Orange.
    
    "The growing racism and violence against Asians in America have been horrific. It's been even more apparent as of late. We need to come together and stand up for one another and keep each other safe," Yip explains.
    
    "I'm very grateful for the community of artists, instrument makers, record labels, and brands who stand with me in fighting for the rights of AAPI. With everyone's generous contributions, we are raffling off (3) incredible and unique Grand Prizes in which a all proceeds will benefit the AAPI Community Fund."
    
    In addition to the raffles, there will be 3 separate eBay auctions as a part of the fundraiser. These include a hand-painted and signed snare drum from Jay Weinberg of Slipknot, a Fender x Nothing collaboration Stratocaster, and a Blackwood Drum Co. drum set from Studio 4 used on many of Will's recordings.

    It's chaos. Be kind. Prestigious

    Bought six tickets, split across all three packages. I literally can't decide which one is the best to win.
