Raffle

Purchase Tickets


This year’s OPA! at the Cathedral Raffle offers a strong mix of prizes with broad appeal across the city and suburbs, including sports, dining, golf, salon services, and professional photography. It is something we can all confidently share and be proud to support, that can be multiplied several times over by simply looking within our own circles. Family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and others we know.

One of the most compelling features of this raffle is that you can allocate your entries to whichever prize or prizes you want, rather than being entered into one general drawing. That gives participants the ability to focus their chances on the experiences they value most.

For any questions, please contact our Raffle Committee Chair, Milteva Andonellis Khurana, at (603) 762-5135 / milt.andonel@gmail.com; or Festival Chair, Symeon Stavrakas, at (312) 805-3205 / sym.stavrakas@gmail.com.
