The Giving Back Raffle raises funds for San Diego’s 56-bedroom Ronald McDonald House, which has provided a “home away from home” for families with a critically ill or injured child in a local hospital for40 years. Proceeds from the Giving Back Raffle help the organization provide services – including lodging, meals and emotional support – to families as they care for their hospitalized child. Each year, more than 15,000 family members access services at the Ronald McDonald House.
“Community support is always critical to the House but is of particular importance now as we go through an unprecedented time of uncertainty,” said Chuck Day, president and CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego. “That is why all of us at San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House are grateful for individuals like Mr. Meyer whose participation in the Giving Back Raffle is helping support families with a child in a medical crisis. While raffle participants have the chance to win thousands of enticing prizes, our families benefit most, as this fundraiser allows us to keep them close to their hospitalized child.”
Single ticket prices are $150, and discounted multi-ticket packages, as well as add-on tickets are available. The second early bird ticket deadline is May 29 and the winner receives his or her choice of a 2020 Corvette Stingray; a 20-day, 19-night South Pacific cruise to Easter Island and Tahiti; or $50,000 cash. By purchasing an add-on ticket with a single raffle ticket, the ticket purchaser is entered for a chance to win a weekly prize of $20,000.
