The Phoenix Coyotes are looking for registered non-profit organizations (501(c)(3)) and who can provide 20 volunteers over the age of 18 to raise money during 50/50 raffles for every game.
For those of you who have never been to an NHL/hockey game, a 50/50 raffle is a time honored tradition at all Hockey games. 50/50 raffles are basically a lottery system where fans at a Coyotes game purchases at least one raffle ticket (multiple tickets are usually purchased) and the main prize is 50 percent of the total money raised for the 50/50 raffle. The other 50 percent of the total money raised for the raffle goes to the non profit organization.
Once you enter into the arena for a Coyotes Game, as an example, you will see 50/50 raffle representatives strategically placed all over the upper and lower concourses of the arena. Just go up to one of the voulenteers, purchase your tickets and the drawing will be later on in the game.
This is a great way for non-profit organizations to raise money!
If you are interested, contact the Maggie Goble with the Coyotes:
