School Fundraiser Program
The AHSC School Raffle Program is a community based project to (1) provide a no-risk fundraiser opportunity for our public schools, (2) to enhance our children’s learning and extracurricular activities, and (3) familiarize students at an early age about the concepts of giving and raising funds for community purposes.
Enter your school’s club, group, athletics team, etc. to participate today! Contact: Angela Pang, apang@asianweek.com, (415) 373-4002. The 2013 Make Some Money For your School Raffle Program kicks off March 2013 and goes on until May 10, 2013. Prize results will be announced by May 24, 2013.
Tickets are sold for $3 and $2 goes directly back to each school. The extra $1 goes into a bonus for the top selling school in each division (elementary middle, high), who will be awarded a $500 cash prize. Each school that sells at least 20 tickets will also receive a $100 bonus! There will be multiple prize drawings throughout the 9th Annual Asian Heritage Street Celebration set for Saturday, May 18, 2013 at Civic Center. Winners need not be present to win.
