About 50/50 Charity Raffles
Licensed charity lottery organization supporting British Columbia communities
Our Organization Story
50/50 Charity Raffles was founded with the mission to establish reliable funding streams for British Columbia community programs. Understanding the difficulties local charities encounter in maintaining steady financial support, we created an innovative model that unites community participation with charitable impact.
Our name represents our commitment to equitable giving – every ticket purchased ensures that 50% of proceeds directly support community causes while the other 50% funds attractive prizes that encourage participation. This balanced approach creates sustainable funding for essential services.
