Seeking prizes for a Fall Raffle

Meals on Wheels prepares and delivers freshly-cooked meals, island-wide, to persons who are incapacitated or otherwise unable to prepare a nourishing meal on their own and who have no caregiver, friend or family member who can consistently provide this service. These are our clients.

Prospective clients are usually recommended to MoW by physicians or social workers. Without Meals on Wheels, many patients could not be released from the hospital quite so quickly – especially elderly patients who live alone.  MoW operates 4 days a week year-round, delivering approximately 230 meals daily.  We cannot achieve this without the tireless work of our employees and volunteers and without financial support to keep us going.  Therefore, we are constantly working on fundraising ideas to assist.  

Bermuda has a lot of charities which need help, financially and with volunteers.  Therefore, the "market" is quite crowded and individuals and companies may suffer from some "charity burnout" as a result of being asked quite consistently for help.  

Raffles are a part of Bermuda's charity fabric!  Meals on Wheels has an annual operating budget of nearly $700K so financial assistance to achieve our goals is key.  Therefore we are asking for companies and individuals who can provide a raffle prize to please get in touch with us!  We are hoping to have the raffle tickets available for sale by November 1st.
