Reverse Raffle 2024 was a fantastic success, and we’re thrilled to share the results! 🏈 This year’s event was not just a touchdown but a whole game-changer! All proceeds from Reverse Raffle went directly to our annual campaign, Raised Here, Stays Here, which benefits over 35 different programs throughout the Ohio Valley. With more than 150 enthusiastic attendees, the evening was filled with excitement and football/tailgate fun!
A huge round of applause to our Development Coordinator, Jane Dombroski, who orchestrated an incredible lineup of 27 diverse Raffle Packages. These packages were generously donated by various local businesses to support the United Way of the Upper Ohio Valley. Attendees had the chance to win a variety of fantastic items, including sports tickets, zoo passes, jewelry, purses, gift cards, and much more!
