Super Ticket Raffle

It’s BACK!!!  We are incredibly excited to announce that Alex’s Army Childhood Cancer Foundation has been so generously gifted TWO Tickets to Super Bowl LVIII to raffle off to one lucky winner!!!  The Super Bowl will be taking place for the first time ever in Las VegasNevada and we know will be an unforgettable experience!

You might remember back in 2018 when we raffled off tickets to Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta, GA.  Our 2018 winner had a BLAST and said it was definitely a once in a lifetime experience to attend a Super Bowl live!

We are selling a limited number of tickets so your chances to win are greater.  Similar to last time, we will draw the winning ticket LIVE via livestream for all to share in the excitement and watch!

The drawing for this raffle will take place LIVE at our 2023 Cornhole Tournament Fall Fundraiser (check out our Cornhole Tournament on the events section for more details on that!)

From all of us at Alex’s Army CCF – thank you for supporting our mission – we wish you the all the very best of luck!

Special thank you to our friends at Love Wedding & Events for donating a super amazing photo booth for all to enjoy! They will ALSO be making an appearance at our 2023 Family Day (see below) and we are so grateful to have their support!

Last but certainly NOT least – at our Driving for a Cure end of tournament banquet this year, we announced an exciting way for our golfers and Driving for a Cure event to directly support our upcoming Family Day for our local families with a child who has fought or is fighting cancer.

We have a limited number of supporter spots left and would love if you would consider making a 100% tax-deductible donation to help us make sure this is an incredible event!

Your $100 donation is so greatly appreciated! In doing so you will receive a small sign on the putt-putt golf course that families will read throughout the day as they play. We will reach out to you once all spots are filled to get the information you’d like for us to include on the signage.
