ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥-area charities are out in force, working to raise money through the Millions for ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ raffle.
The annual event, put on by automotive dealer Jim Click Jr., provides raffle tickets to local organizations free of charge, allowing participants to keep 100% of the funds raised to support programs and services.
The tickets are sold to community members for $25 each or five for $100. This year’s grand prize is a 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe. The second-place prize is two first-class, roundtrip airline tickets to anywhere in the world. Third prize is $5,000 cash.
“Last year, participating charities raised a record amount, more than $1.87 million, and this year we want to raise even more because every dollar raised stays right here in our community,†Click said. “We are so grateful to our charities, who do so much for our community, and for our community, who gives back in so many ways.â€
