Is it against australian law to sell raffle tickets for the purpose of helping my family?

Im a single mum of 2 young children. I dont make much money and am finding it hard to afford anything beyond general living expenses. I had an idea that i could make up a few gift baskets and sell raffles tickets and use the profits to buy chrissy presents for my kids. I just wanted to make sure that this isnt illegal? Im in South Australia.

Chook raffles were pretty common decades ago. A guy would come into a pub with a frozen chook or meat tray and sell tickets to everyone in the pub, pull out the winner give the prize, and do the same thing to the next pub down the road. Another $ idea you may try without disappearing into pubs at night is make stencils to spray paint house numbers on curbs. Good luck and merry christmas
