MILFORD LIONS CLUB

District 22-D

Car Raffle

Updated November 19, 2007

The Milford Lions Club started the Car Raffle in 1988.  Since then, Lion Clubs in Multiple District 22 have raised over $2,500,000 for community projects.  The first year we gave away a 1988 Ford Thunderbird, the winner was Ray Brown from Laurel, DE.  Later we extended the offered to all Lion Clubs in Multiple District 22. Our club would run the project, providing the tickets and prizes.  The clubs that participated would keep half of the money they raise for their community projects.   A couple years later we decided to increased the prizes two vehicles, usually a midsize car and a pick-up truck.  The prizes were changed again in 1997 to a popular vehicle, usually a 4X4 SUV and $10,000 in cash prizes.  This year the we are giving away a Ford 500 SEL (4 door sedan) and $6,000 in cash prizes, $3,000, $2,000 and $1,000.
