Throughout the month of March, Family Promise of the Coastal Empire is introducing a new fundraiser, “Hoops for Housing,” with a March-madness-themed raffle.

Daily raffle drawings with a vast variety of enticing prizes will allow participants many chances to win, all leading up to the grand drawing on March 31 – with a cash prize of $10,000. Family Promise will announce the winner, who will be contacted to ensure they receive their prizes, each day on its website and social media platforms.

Family Promise has partnered with local organizations and companies to collect 30 raffle prizes, ranging from gift cards to experiences and must-have items culminating in the big cash prize on March 31. All raffle proceeds received during the month of March will support the nonprofit organization’s mission of offering help, hope, and hospitality to homeless families with children in our communities. Participants can purchase as many raffle tickets as they’d like, with the chances of them winning increasing with each ticket bought.

"We are thrilled to be launching this raffle fundraiser and can’t wait to share March Madness with our community,” said Family Promise of the Coastal Empire Executive Director Katrina Bostick. "This is such a fun and easy way to plug in and support Family Promise, with each ticket only costing $25. We encourage the community to buy their tickets and follow along with us through March!”

Raffle tickets are $25 and can be purchased on Family Promise’s website at www.familypromisece.org/hoops-for-housing. For more information or questions regarding raffle tickets or donations, please contact Katrina Bostick at [email protected].
