The Kinsmen Foundation announced the details of its first-ever online 50/50 raffle in support of TeleMiracle 45.
Saskatchewan residents will have the ability to support “Saskatchewan’s Charity”, while having the opportunity to take home half of the final jackpot. The total jackpot will start at $25,000.
Tickets are on sale now and are available at www.telemiracle5050.ca. The draw date is Feb. 26, 2021. The winner will be announced on the pre-broadcast show, the “Countdown to TeleMiracle”, which will be livestreamed at www.telemiracle.com, starting at 6:15 p.m. on Feb. 27.
“With COVID-19 impacting many forms of traditional, in-person fundraising, the time was right for TeleMiracle to launch this fundraiser,” said TeleMiracle 45 chair Brian Angstadt.
“It’s a win-win for Saskatchewan residents. Now they can support TeleMiracle and have the chance to win half of the jackpot.”
Angstadt added that “we hope that TeleMiracle supporters, both old and new ones, will make this raffle a huge success.”
He pointed out the telethon event is about helping as many people in Saskatchewan a possible, and the more tickets that can be sold, the more people can be helped.
Tickets are available for anyone over the age of 19 who is physically in the province of Saskatchewan at the time of purchase.
Tickets are one for $20, five for $50, 20 for $100 or 100 for $250.
The draw will be made at 4 p.m. on Feb. 26, 2021, and the winner will be notified by email or phone, with instructions on how to claim the prize.
Eligible buyers can purchase over the phone by calling 1-306-244-6400 ext. 4.
With the funding provided by TeleMiracle, the Kinsmen Foundation provides specialized mobility and medical equipment to people and organizations throughout the province, as well as travel assistance for residents in need of vital medical treatment outside their community.
