The Angel Foundation for Learning Fall 50-50 Raffle

The Angel Foundation for Learning is excited to announce our latest online 50/50 raffle fundraiser! - Grab your tickets now for a chance to win!

AFL is the only charity that exists solely to help students and families in the Toronto Catholic District School Board.

The Foundation distributes financial and resource-based aid to more than 170 schools who have student nutrition programs. It also directs individual and corporate donations to support TCDSB students and families who require temporary emergency assistance due to unexpected circumstances (fire, flood, sudden illness or loss). AFL also assists with the cost of basic essentials for children and youth including school apparel, eye glasses, hearing aids and dental treatment. We also offer a number of bursaries for post-secondary studies, support student leadership and camp programs for underprivileged youth.

Never has the need been greater in our communities, and while those who need assistance is increasing year to year as prices for basic commodities escalates, donation levels are on the decline. Initiatives such as these 50-50 raffles enable us to generate much needed revenue to help as many students and families as possible, while also providing participants with a chance to win cash and prizes.

The net proceeds from this raffle will support our commitment to ensuring that no student is left behind due to financial circumstances.

We thank belairdirect for their supporting sponsorship of The Angel Foundation for Learning throughout the year.

The winner of the cash jackpot and any early birds draws will be contacted to claim their prizes.

There is an option on the Rafflebox 50-50 draw site to make a donation when you purchase your ticket. This is not mandatory. If you opt in, and your donation is $20 or more, a tax receipt will be issued. Please note that as per CRA regulations we can not issue tax receipts for the purchase of the raffle tickets.

Thank you for purchasing your ticket(s) and helping us help kids!
