How would you like to visit Best Friends? On us!
That’s right, the grand prize in our summer raffle is a trip for two to Best Friends.
Winners stay at one of the cottages or cabins at the sanctuary where they’ll have ample opportunity to socialize with Best Friends residents as well as enjoy some of the local offerings, including day trips to the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell or Zion National Park.
Best Friends members, sponsors and supporters have donated more than 400 prizes for this year’s raffle, including trips to Arcadia National Park in Maine and the Emerald Coast resort in Panama City, Fla., a Tour de France watch, DVD/stereo player, jewelry, gift certificates, CDs, pet toys and supplies… and the list goes on.
The more you enter, the more chances to win. So what are you waiting for? You can buy those tickets right now online at https://www.bestfriends.org/summerraffle/. The drawing will take place at Best Friends on July 23. (And no, you needn’t be present to win!)
The summer raffle has been one of Best Friends’ most successful fund-raisers. Last year, more than 370,000 entries were received. And that’s great news for the animals at Best Friends because all proceeds from ticket sales benefit the nearly 2,000 residents at the sanctuary.
The funds will also be used to help promote Best Friends outreach efforts to work toward a time when there are No More Homeless Pets. So even if you don’t win the trip to Best Friends or any of the other prizes, you’re still a winner in our book for helping the animals at the sanctuary and across the country.
The suggested donation an individual raffle ticket is $2; or a book of ten tickets, $20. For more information on how to purchase raffle tickets, click here.
