The Raffle is the largest
contributor to the Families First Fund. The raffle is held every
fall as part of our Family Picnic.
100% of the money raised goes to the
Families
First Fund, a charitable fund that assists families of higher order multiples (both member and nonmember
families)
experiencing financial hardship. On the average the fund distributes
about $3500 each year and the raffle contributes nearly half of that
amount.
What can you win?

have received donations of a one week stay in Sea Grove Beach, Florida, a
tandem skydive, carpeting and free installation, dinners from Dream
