If your non-profit group or organization or sports team is looking for fundraising opportunities, the Victoria HarbourCats and the Victoria HarbourCats Foundation are pleased to offer 50-50 and game ticket selling opportunities throughout the season.
HARBOURCATS FOUNDATION 50-50 RAFFLE
NEW! The Victoria HarbourCats Foundation now oversees and operates the 50-50 draw at all HarbourCats games, using electronic raffling systems, with non-profit groups and other charitable organizations assisting to operate the machines during games. The Foundation and the volunteer groups split the proceeds with 80% going to the volunteer group and 20% going to the Foundation.
The HarbourCats Foundation looks after all licensing aspects of the 50-50, so groups no longer need to apply for a gaming license, and as the draw is now electronic and cash free, groups do not have to worry about tickets or cash. They just show up on game night, with 8-10 volunteers, and sell, sell, sell and reap the benefits of substantially higher 50-50 sales and proceeds, than in past years.
The 50-50 draw is also now on-line, so on the day of their raffle, groups can advertise the 50-50 site – http://harbourcats5050.com – on their social channels to generate sales even before the game begins!
Groups wishing to sell 50-50 tickets in the park should contact chris@harbourcats.com for a list of available dates and details on the program.
TICKET SELLING FUNDRAISER
In conjunction with, or even completely independent of our 50-50 program, groups can participate in our Ticket Selling Fundraiser.
Under this program, groups must commit to purchasing and then selling a minimum of 100 Premium Reserved tickets to a specific game (can be any game during the year OR the game that the group is booked in to do 50-50 sales at), OR commit to sell a minimum of 100 Premium Reserve ticket vouchers which can be redeemed for ANY regular season game. We sell these tickets to you at $10.00 each (a $1,000.00 commitment)(in 2025 this is normally a $22.00 or $24.00 ticket) and then we suggest you sell them to your friends and family at $15.00 or $20.00 to make your initial $1,000.00 back and then an extra $500.00 or $1,000.00 for your group.
Groups can participate in this program at any point during the year and do not have to have a 50-50 date booked to join. For example, groups could buy 100 vouchers for the following season in the fall and sell them as part of a Christmas fundraising program.
While there is a minimum purchase of 100 tickets/vouchers required, there is no upper limit! Groups who have success selling can come back and purchase as many additional tickets as they like!
Groups wishing to participate in the ticket selling fundraising program should contact chris@harbourcats.com for details on the program.
