50/50 Raffle Ticket Sales End March 17!
Each $100 ticket purchased will earn one entry into the raffle. Only 600 tickets will be available for purchase, so odds of winning are high! Buy tickets online by visiting https://www.one-five.org/50-50-raffle.
Half of the money raised through the raffle (up to $30,000) will be retained by the one-five Foundation to further its charitable work in District 15. The other half of the money raised (up to $30,000) will be issued to the raffle winner. Last year's winner took home $16,500!
The raffle drawing will take place live at 12 p.m. on March 17, 2020 through the district's Facebook page. Complete raffle rules, terms and conditions are available at https://www.one-five.org/50-50-raffle.
Ticket Proceeds Fund one-five Foundation Initiatives
Blessings in a Backpack
Blessings in a Backpack mobilizes communities, individuals and resources to provide food on the weekends for elementary school children across America who might otherwise go hungry. Currently there are 700 students in District 15 who benefit from this program, with 1,700 more in need.
Flexible Seating in School Libraries
Most of our school library spaces haven't been updated in more than 25 years. In 2020, library spaces are intended for more than just reading and research. School libraries are now used for a variety of collaborative and creative activities. The large, heavy furniture outfitting District 15 library spaces makes these activities cumbersome and difficult. The one-five Foundation is raising funds to replace the furniture in every D15 school library.
