CRC Sells Winning US Airways Raffle Ticket

Again this year a Carolina Raptor Center supporter was one of the winners of the US Airways Raffle. John Capets will receive a four (4) day / three (3) night vacation to a resort in San Juan, Puerto as well as $1,000 in cash.  Besides the over $2,600 in ticket sales, Carolina Raptor Center will receive an additional $5,000 in cash and $2,500 in travel vouchers. This makes 2 out of 3 years that Carolina Raptor Center has been one of the winning organizations.

Over 20 Charlotte area organizations participated in the “2008 Reach Out to Charlotte Non-Profits” sponsored by US Airways. The program helped raise over $60,000 for the Charlotte community.

Congratulations to John and thanks to the hundreds of you who either bought or sold tickets.
