Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles will run the legendary “Philly Special” play that helped win the Super Bowl with the lucky winner of an Omaze charity raffle. The raffle winner will get to bring a guest, and will receive VIP tickets to an upcoming Eagles home game, flights to Philadelphia, and lodging in a 4-star hotel.

All proceeds from the raffle will benefit Dysautonomia International’s POTS Research Fund. Nick’s wife, Tori, has been diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), a common form of dysautonomia that impacts an estimated 1-3 million Americans.

“You. Me. The Philly Special.” Let’s Do It!” reads a sign Nick held to kick off the raffle.

Omaze offers the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime experience for as little as $10 – raising funds for worthy causes in a unique way. The more money you donate to the cause through the Omaze campaign, the more chances you have to win!

The deadline to enter the Omaze charity raffle is Sept. 21, 2018 at 11:59 p.m. PST. The winner will be announced on October 1, 2018.

In addition to the Omaze raffle funds, Nick is also donating all of the profits from his new book “Believe It: My Journey of Success, Failure and Overcoming the Odds” to causes that are special to his family, including Dysautonomia International and several faith-based organizations. The book, which recently reached No. 2 on the New York Times non-fiction Bestsellers List, discusses Tori’s POTS journey, among many other topics.

“We’re blessed that we have this chance to help raise awareness about POTS and dysautonomia and to contribute to very badly-needed research,” said Nick. “We want the proceeds to go to places we are a part of, and where our hearts lead us.”

Dysautonomia International created the POTS Research Fund in December 2013 to provide a dedicated stream of funding for POTS research. To date, the organization has issued nearly $1 million in cutting-edge POTS research grants seeking to identify more effective treatments, and eventually a cure.
