Our Foundation Calendar Raffle begins in July.  Tickets were distributed at our May 6th meeting.  Our goal is to raise $5000 which means 500 tickets sold.  We ask all Rotarians to sell 9 tickets.  To meet our goal it would be around 12 tickets per Rotarian.  Thank you for your support of our Foundation!
