The Rotary Club of Sun Lakes raised money through “Month of Money” raffle tickets sales for P.A.W.S.S., a 501[c]3 Organization. P.A.W.S.S. mission is to provide service dog training free of charge for needy veterans. RCSL appreciates and thanks all the donors of this community service program.
RCSL Veterans Services Committee’s goal was to sell 1,000 $20 tickets. The result: RCSL members and friends sold 751 tickets resulting in gross income of $15,020.00. RCSL budgeted $3,700 for printing, advertising, and weekly/final prize winner (26) drawings. Raffle prize winners donated $1,400 of prize winner monies back to RCSL. RCSL retained $2,500 for future veteran services projects.
RCSL Club President Ed Anderson and RCSL Veteran Services Committee Chair Stan Kaufman presented the $10,000 check to P.A.W.S.S. co-founders Ryan and Janna Newman and daughter Irelyn Newman (and Pups).
