The Effingham County Chamber is going virtual for the 4th Annual Fall Draw Reverse Raffle on Friday, September 24 at 5:30 pm. This year’s event will be hosted LIVE by Dr. Ryan Jennings on the Chamber’s Facebook page – @EffCoChamber – with a Grand Prize of $5,000!

In a Reverse Raffle, the first ticket drawn is a loser – you want your ticket to be the last drawn to win the grand prize. If your ticket is not drawn the first time around, it is automatically entered into the Second Chance Drawing to win one of two $250 cash prizes.

Reverse Raffle tickets are open to the public and are $50.00 each. Only 300 tickets will be sold, which gives you a one in 10 chance of winning cash or a prize.

Proceeds from the Reverse Raffle benefit Effingham County Job Opportunities for Business Success (EC-JOBS). EC-JOBS is a web-based platform created specifically for Effingham County school districts, businesses, and Lake Land College. EC-JOBS creates a talent pipeline from school to work for high school students, community college students, parents, displaced workers, and incumbent workers.
