Over a dozen local good causes have already signed up to benefit from the Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale CVS (BPRCVS) brand-new Helping Hands Lottery.
BPRCVS’ Helping Hands Lottery – Hotly anticipated tickets for the new Helping Hands Lottery are now on sale, with the first weekly draw taking place on Saturday, 6th December.
The local community lottery has been set up by Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale CVS in a bid to raise money for charities and good causes throughout Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale.
Tickets are available to buy online at www.helpinghandslottery.co.uk at a cost of £1 each, and winners could scoop up to £25,000. Draws will take place every Saturday at 8 pm. The lucky winners will be informed by email and will have the money transferred automatically into their bank account.
Christine Blythe, BPRCVS Chief Officer, said,
“We’ve established Helping Hands Lottery as a way for good causes to raise essential funds. 60% of the money raised will go to good causes. The rest will go towards the prize money, running costs, and VAT. It’s a fantastic way for people to support a good cause of their choice, whilst also getting the chance to win up to £25,000.”
Amongst the good causes that will benefit from the lottery are Home-Start in East Lancashire, Lancashire Wildlife Trust, Horses and Ponies Protection Association – HAPPA, Outdoors 4 All Together, Beacon Dementia and Wellbeing, Rossendale Refugee Support Group, and others – we hope to have many more other good causes of all types joining us shortly.
Other not-for-profit organisations, such as sports clubs, community groups and PTAs, are encouraged to sign up and start benefitting from the lottery here: https://www.helpinghandslottery.co.uk/good-causes
