Porsche Lottery 2022-Progress So Far

 
This year the Rotary Club of Burlington Central embarked on a major fundraiser, an online lottery for a beautiful Porsche vehicle.
 
It has been a challenge but made much easier with the help of Steve Wallace, of Rotary Club of Wasaga Beach, Corvette Lottery fame. A steep learning curve all the way from obtaining a lottery license from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario to obtaining a Real Money Gaming approval to advertise on Facebook. Even getting, a fully funded Letter of Credit takes a long, long time.
 
The whole team has worked very hard on “organic” sales (local sales to people and organizations known by the club), but we are still counting on, on-line Province wide sales for most of the ticket revenue.
 
Early Bird prizes have generated a lot of interest and many ticket have been sold, but you need a constant flow of activities to keep the sales moving along. We are now just a few weeks away from the final draw and are working hard to figure out the best way to maximize sales as the lottery comes to a close. 
 
The final draw is on October 29, 2022, and by November we hope that we will have learned enough about running on-line lotteries so we can do a much better job next year.If you read this article on time, please visit www.porschelottery.ca to enter for your “chance to win” a beautiful 2022 Porsche Macan S. Tickets start at just $20.00!
