An elimination-style fundraiser has been launched by Big Brothers Big Sisters this month.
The new fundraising campaign is designed to help participants ‘shop, support and survive,’ with proceeds going towards mentoring programs for children in Prince George.
It invites groups of four to test their luck over the course of five days between Nov 30 and Dec 4.
Names will be drawn at random and these participants will be eliminated from the competition.
Participants are not eliminated until every member has been drawn and removed from the running.
“COVID-19 has resulted in a lot of organizations having to change their fundraising strategies, and we are no exception,” said Jane Gauthier, Community Development Coordinator.
“We looked at a whole bunch of various raffle ideas but were drawn to this idea as we can have some fun, bring people together and invest our prize costs into various local businesses and truly support PG.”
