Easterseals thanks all ticket buyers and sponsors for helping the raffle succeed during this important fundraiser. During the drawing, Easterseals detailed the importance of fundraisers such as the All Ca$h Raffle to assist those with disabilities in our local community. Ticket sales were important this year to help continue underwriting therapy services at the Easterseals Rehabilitation Center for individuals who couldn’t otherwise afford them.
The Easterseals Rehabilitation Center offers its core services of physical, occupational and speech therapy, audiology, and psychology services on a sliding fee scale and the vast majority of the organization’s therapy clients need financial assistance.
Accountants from Kemper CPA Group verified all ticket sales and assisted with the drawing. Easterseals Board Chair, Bill Norman, drew the winning tickets.
