Join us as we celebrate 80 years of the JCC in Western New York with food stations, drinks, entertainment, a silent auction, a Reverse Raffle for a fabulous cash prize of $5000, and a special announcement about the JCC's future. All event proceeds will support scholarships for Camp Centerland, Early Childhood programs, Kids' Place, and family memberships.
What is a Reverse Raffle?
A Reverse Raffle is a variation on a classic raffle, but instead of only one ticket being pulled as the winner, tickets are pulled throughout the night and eliminated until the very last ticket remains; that final ticket is the grand prize winner! Everyone who purchases a ticket to this event will get a chance at the Reverse Raffle grand prize. To increase your chances of winning, only 400 tickets will be sold!
Stay tuned for more information, including when tickets will go on sale, a list of fabulous prizes that can be bid on in the silent auction, Reverse Raffle door prizes, and the entertainment lineup for the evening.
The JCC only turns 80 once, and you will not want to miss this party!
