Sponsor and community generosity drives Paws and Claws Father's Day raffle success
KINDNESS
The Father's Day raffle has become an annual event in the Paws and Claw's fundraising calendar.
Supported by the generosity of local businesses there were prizes galore, and with over 500 locals entering and 33 prizes up for grabs, everyone entering had around a one in 12 chance of prize winning something.
With tickets priced at $2 each or $5 for 3, a total of $1544 was raised. That's over 500 locals and visitors who delved into their pockets to help this wonderful local cause.
So far this year over $10,000 has been raised with the various fundraising activities.
The amazing generosity of the locals and the local businesses that contribute has been, as always, a great factor in helping to support the furry residents of Paws and Claws and in keeping their wonderful work going.
