An applicant for this license shall accompany the application with a fee of one hundred dollars ($100). (b) This special license shall only entitle the licensee to sell beer or wine bought by, or donated to, the licensee to a consumer and to any person holding a license authorizing the sale of beer or wine. Notwithstanding any other provision of this division, a licensee may donate or sell beer or wine to a nonprofit corporation that obtains a special temporary on-sale or off-sale license under this section, provided that the donation is not made in connection with a sale of an alcoholic beverage. (c) This special license shall be for a period not exceeding 15 days. In the event the license under this section is issued for a period exceeding two days, it shall be used solely in conjunction with an identifiable fundraising event sponsored or conducted by the licensee and all bottles of beer or wine sold under this license shall bear a label prominently identifying the event. A nonprofit corporation may be issued no more than four special licenses authorized by this section per calendar year. (d) (1) Notwithstanding Section 25600 or any rule of the department, a nonprofit corporation issued a special temporary on-sale or off-sale beer or wine license pursuant to this section that also obtains a raffle registration from the Department of Justice pursuant to Section 320.5 of the Penal Code may offer, provide, or award alcoholic beverages as a prize in a raffle. (2) This subdivision does not authorize the awarding of alcoholic beverages as a raffle prize, or the sale or consumption of any alcoholic beverages, that are not otherwise authorized to be sold pursuant to the special temporary on-sale or off-sale beer or wine license obtained by the nonprofit corporation.
