We are excited to announce our upcoming raffle for a 1995 Corvette, organized by our local VFW  660 post. This raffle serves a twofold purpose: to support our deserving local veterans and to raise funds for various programs and initiatives that benefit those who have selflessly served our country.

Our VFW post has a rich history deeply rooted in honoring and assisting veterans. Established 21st of April 1932, it has been a cornerstone of support for those who have bravely defended our nation's freedoms. Over the years, we have continuously strived to create a tight-knit community of veterans and their families, offering a range of resources, camaraderie, and essential services to those who have sacrificed so much for our country.

The funds raised through this raffle will go directly towards supporting local veterans and their families in several meaningful ways. We aim to provide financial assistance to veterans facing hardships, facilitate access to healthcare and mental health services, and organize events that foster a sense of belonging and support among our community of veterans.

Now, let's talk about the raffle itself. The grand prize is a stunning 1995 Corvette, a true American classic that embodies the spirit of freedom and adventure. This beautiful car has been donated by Gilbert Straub, the local franchisee of Bojangles Famous Chicken n' Biscuits.  He is quoted to say he wanted to find a fun way to give back to those who dedicated their lives to protecting our way of life.  This is actually the second time he and Bojangles sponsored a Corvette raffle for Veterans.  Back in 2021 a 1975 Stingray was raffled with the proceeds going to Vietnam Veterans Liberty Chapter 789. 

To participate in the raffle, individuals can purchase tickets for a set price. Each ticket will be $10. The raffle drawing will take place on September 3, 2023 at 4:00 PM at our VFW post located at 5115 Ogeechee Road, Savannah GA, with strict adherence to all legal regulations and guidelines.

We believe that this raffle provides an excellent opportunity for our community to come together and support our local veterans. By purchasing a ticket, you not only get a chance to win a fantastic prize but also contribute to a noble cause. Your support will make a tangible difference in the lives of our veterans and their families, allowing us to continue providing essential services and fostering a strong support network.

We are immensely grateful for your consideration and support in our mission to uplift and assist local veterans. Together, we can make a positive impact and ensure that our heroes receive the respect, care, and support they rightfully deserve
