The Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board (ALCDSB) is excited to announce the winner of its first ever 50/50 raffle. Congratulations, Jennifer McCoy, an ALCDSB educator, on winning an impressive $13,633.50! The raffle closed at a total of $27,267.00!
"I never expected to win, but I'm thrilled to support the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic Education Foundation and its important work!" Says Jennifer McCoy. "It feels amazing to give back to the community, and winning is just the cherry on top. What a fantastic way to kick off March break!"
This initiative was organized to support ALCDSB students and their families during times of urgent financial assistance through the ALCE Foundation. The remaining proceeds from the raffle will go directly to the Foundation, ensuring the continuation of these supports with the increase of the cost of living.
“We are incredibly grateful to our community for their generous support of this raffle,” said Leila Nasr-Sharifi, Chair of the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic Education Foundation. “The enthusiasm and participation of our community have made a meaningful impact, and we truly appreciate every contribution.”
