Ottawa Humane Society Launches its First Online 50/50 Raffle, Raising Money for Animals in Need

July 9, 2020 The Ottawa Humane Society (OHS) has launched its first ever OHS 50/50 Raffle to help raise money for the animals in its care.

Because of COVID-19, the OHS has had to cancel its major fundraising events for 2020. The funds raised through the OHS 50/50 Raffle will help the OHS continue to be able to provide life-saving care for more than 8,000 animals each year.

“Our community has been steadfast in its support for the animals these past months,” said OHS President & CEO, Bruce Roney. “We’re excited about this new fundraiser because it will ensure care for the animals – plus providing the opportunity to win some great prizes.”

There are two early bird draws and one main 50/50 draw, but early bird winners will have their tickets re-entered into the main draw. Only people 18 years of age or older who are in Ontario may purchase tickets.

The OHS 50/50 Raffle has no cap on ticket sales, so the main prize will continue growing as tickets are purchased. To purchase tickets, visit: www.ottawahumane.ca/5050.
