Recipients Reap Riffle Raffle Rewards

More than $135,000 was distributed to local schools and youth groups Wednesday by the Redding East Rotary. It was every penny of the money raised by those groups through the Sundial Riffle Raffle. Members of 27 different programs sold tickets for the Raffle, with all the money dedicated to abuse prevention and youth development programs. The Sundial Riffle Raffle replaced the Ducky Derby as the Redding East Rotary’s big fundraising drive for youth, bringing in over $6 million over 35 years. The top performing school was Mistletoe Elementary, which brought in over $20,000, followed by Boulder Creek with nearly $16,000, and Manzanita with over $12,000. School and youth groups who participate for the first time are granted matching funds. Groups who want to get in on it this year can find details at SundialRiffleRaffle.com
