Description

We are putting together a large community raffle called "Mac's Favorite Things" to raise money for our PTO's general fund to continue providing programs and items needed for our students and staff. We are seeking donations to use as prizes for the raffle tickets. Tickets will be sold and prizes will be given away and will be drawn from the drawing barrel by our new school mascot  named Mac. The goal is to give away some big ticket items, not only because we believe these types of items will sell more tickets, but because in some cases, many of our students wouldn't have the option to have some of these items because our the poverty level of our school population.
