Our Thankfully Wilkes Community Fundraiser is an opportunity for you to support 4 local non-profit organizations in Wilkes at one time, PLUS you 'll have a chance at winning a basket of cash and gift cards to local businesses! (Imagine getting all your Christmas shopping done with the purchase of one raffle ticket!)

When purchasing a raffle ticket, simply choose (vote for) your favorite, participating non-profit organization to support. (We've listed our participating organizations below.) A portion of your ticket purchase will go directly to the organization you choose, and the rest will be held in a community money pot. When ticket sales close, one winner will be randomly drawn to receive the grand prize gift basket (it could be YOU) and the non-profit organization receiving the most votes will split the community money pot with The Understudies!

What will The Understudies do with its portion of the proceeds? We're glad you asked! We'll use our portion of the money raised to bring you live, theatre entertainment! Our first show opens in February 2025. Stay tuned for all the details! We think you're going to love this production!

Thanks for supporting YOUR community through the Thankfully Wilkes Community Fundraiser!
