Euclid Kiwanis Poor Man's Raffle

In this day and age, fundraising is getting much harder.  Club memberships are dwindling or aging and the job market adds to the lack of support that organizations are getting from the community.  We as the Euclid Kiwanis Club have been very fortunate.  All of the money we raise in the community, goes back into the community in the form of projects throughout the year.  We are in the process of paying four seniors, from the city of Euclid, who graduated this year, with $1000.00 scholarships.  Two from Euclid High School and two from Notre Dame Cathedral Latin.  Out BOOTS AND SHOES Program with the Payless Shoe Source provides 100 gift certificates, in the amount of $25.00, to needy school children.  We have a Terrific Kids Program with two of the Pre-Schools in Euclid.  We provide safe seats and Teddy Bears to the Euclid Police Department and we are and have been a monthly supporter of the Mary Mavec Opportunity School for the past 70 years.  Our presence is felt in the community.  We have been told we are one of the best kept secrets in Euclid, but that is not what we want.  We want to be known by the work we do in the commuity.   Currently we are having a Poor Man's Raffle with an $800.00 jackpot, spaghetti meatball dinner and loads of fun.  We are only selling 125 tickets for a donation of $15.00.  It will be at the Euclid Square Mall and doors open at 5:30 pm on July 9th.  If you need more information or tickets, please call 216-261-3630 or 216-299-6798.  Rose Tanner, Publicity.
