Sat 24 May. Club FUNdraising Raffle VOLUNTEER

PLEASE SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER VIA THE BLUE BUTTON

 Last time we did this our club raised over $4,000 for a few fun hours of volunteering. The more volunteers from our club, the larger our piece of the pie!

Once again the Rotary Club of Brisbane has been invited to participate in a fundraising event at the DOOMBEN RACECOURSE on Saturday, 24 May. Volunteers from the club, along with family and friends, will be selling raffle tickets to raise funds for the club’s charity accounts.

The raffle operates with 50% of the takings going to the prize winner, 40.9% going to the volunteer organizations, and 9.1% to the Lottery Foundation. Proceeds are distributed to participating Rotary clubs based on the number of volunteers they provide, meaning the more volunteers, the greater the financial benefit for the club.

Volunteers are required to arrive at the Racecourse in the morning for a briefing, with raffle ticket selling beginning at 11 am and continuing for around four hours. This event presents an opportunity for the club to raise as much in one day as they could have with a week of car parking, an opportunity the club missed out on this year.

Special thanks to Maria Efthymioploulos for coordinating the event, and the Hamilton Rotary Club for extending the invitation.
