OPPORTUNITY DRAWING TICKETS

ABOUT
The Foundation Celebration Drawing is a major part of the fundraising for Rotarians and the Rotary Clubs in District 5280.  “Every Rotarian, Every Year,” is the motto of Rotary International encouraging Rotarians to contribute annually to The Rotary Foundation.  The individual goal is a minimum of $100 each year for every Rotarian.  Rotary District 5280 has for many years reached higher, for a goal of $250 with 100% participation.
 
To help raise these contributions, the Foundation Celebration auctions and drawings began 40 years ago.  Rotarians are challenged to contribute while enjoying a special Foundation Celebration event that is different each year and have an opportunity to also win one of three prizes. 
 
Tickets are $10 each and if you purchase ten tickets you receive two bonus tickets (a total of 12 for $100). You could be a winner of $2500 (1st Place), $1,000 (2nd Place), or $500 (3rd Place)!
HOW TO PURCHASE TICKETS
There are two ways to pay for your opportunity drawing tickets. DO NOT SEND CASH.
 

  • Pay by check

    • Checks should be made payable to: THE ROTARY FOUNDATION
    • Checks, hardcopy tickets, and the Multiple Donor Form should be returned to the Rotary District 5280 Office.
 

  • Pay by credit card

    • Visit the Rotary International donation page
    • Select "Annual Fund- SHARE"
    • Follow the directions for the donation.  Select “One-Time Donation” or contribute each month, quarterly or annually.

GET CREDIT FOR YOUR PURCHASE
Each contribution provides Foundation credits for your Rotary Club and, in most cases, for the individual donating Rotarian. To be sure Rotarians receive proper credit for their donations, it is critical that the Multiple Donor Form is accurately completed.
 
The Club Foundation Chair (or a designated member) should complete the Multiple Donor Form for all tickets purchased.
