Portage Township Education Foundation Launches the 500 Club

Portage-Township-Education-FoundationThe Portage Township Education Foundation is a not for profit foundation that awards grants to teachers within Portage Township Schools for programs that directly effect students. To help raise funds in an effort to continue these programs the Portage Township Education Foundation now announces the opening of the 500 Club. The PTEF would greatly appreciate your support in getting the word out about this year long raffle benefitting the Portage community and Portage Township Schools.

The 500 Club is a monthly raffle with a limited number of 500 tickets sold. The 500 Club offers three drawings on the second Wednesday of every month January through December. Prizes include $1000 for the first drawing, $150 for second and $100 for third. Tickets cost $60 and are valid from January through December. What makes the PTEF 500 club unique is that every ticket remains eligible to win each month from January through December regardless if it was drawn on a prior month.

For the last minute shopper, PTEF 500 Club tickets make great Christmas gifts with the potential to win every month throughout the year! Ticket holders then have the first chance to renew for next year’s drawings from November 20th through December 20th 2013 before any tickets sell to the public.

The Portage Township Education Foundation is dedicated to supporting teachers and students in their efforts to innovate and achieve. Over the course of the past 5 years the Education Foundation has awarded more than $55,000 in grants to Portage Township School teachers for their innovative learning projects resulting in student achievement. Consider donating $60 to the Portage Township Education Foundation with the chance to win up to $1000 every month for a year!
