Marilyn and Nicole gave a good and insightful presentation about the potential direction of our New Fundraiser should we decide to go with a Car Raffle. The intention of the Fundraiser is to raise around $50,000 for a Major Project. The last one Rotary oversaw was in 2012 (and was $20,000. The last project over that was the year before - 2011 - where Rotary put $95,000 into the community, specifically into Rotary Place). The idea behind the Raffle as opposed to other fundraiser ideas was because, with the Automatic blanket Mailouts, over time, this would be minimal work for the club, though the first couple years may take significant investments of time. It was decided that the shorter timeframe of 6 months was a better schedule. The anticipated individual ticket sails required (outside hours given at booths throughout the project) was around 20 tickets per Rotarian. The Projected profit was $47,000. The importance of knowing where the money was going ahead of time, and to be clearly portrayed throughout the fundraiser was brought up by several members. Marilyn also thanked several people for their involvement in the project to date. Thanks to Marilyn and Nicole for a good presentation.
