A local outreach organization is giving residents a chance to win big and support a good cause at the same time.

R.O.C.K. has launched its fall 50/50 raffle, with proceeds going towards ongoing its operating costs for helping those experiencing homelessness, insecure housing, and people who use substances.

The grand prize winner will take home 50 per cent of the total jackpot, with the other half going to R.O.C.K.’s outreach programs and drop-in centres.

R.O.C.K. serves around 420 people in Chatham and Wallaceburg each week by providing easier access to information, harm reduction supplies, and community-driven outreach.

The grand prize draw will take place on November 1 at 8 p.m. Tickets for the 50/50 raffle can be purchased online by clicking here.
