(1) The
Colorado constitution recognizes that the conduct of charitable gaming activities is
directly related to the need of nonprofit organizations to fulfill their lawful
purposes. Notwithstanding this recognition, however, the willingness of bingo-raffle volunteers to offer their services has been increasingly deterred by a
perception that they put personal assets at risk should a tort action be filed seeking
damages arising from their volunteer activities.

(2) All bingo-raffle volunteers are immune from civil actions and liabilities
pursuant to section 13-21-115.5, which provides that volunteers are not personally
liable for their acts or omissions if they are acting in good faith and within the scope
of their official function and duty for a charitable organization, with respect to such
organization's conduct of games of chance. Bingo-raffle volunteers are not liable
under this section if the harm is not caused by willful and wanton misconduct, gross
negligence, reckless misconduct, or a conscious, flagrant indifference to the rights
or safety of the individual harmed.
