Win vacations in the Soroptimist of Tahoe Sierra raffle!

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Soroptimist International of Tahoe Sierra (SITS) has been serving the women and youth of the South Lake Tahoe community since 1977. In order to provide the funds necessary to help, the club fundraises. In the past, that was done through the annual Elegant Evening and silent auction, but COVID-19 paused large in-person events, so SITS has responded with three fun and new ways to help those in the community!

On Tuesday, January 24, 2023, the club started two (yes two) raffles for exciting vacations. One is a week's stay in a Kihei, Maui condo, and the other is a week's stay at an RCI timeshare anywhere in the world!

The odds are great too, just 200 tickets will be sold for each vacation! Tickets are $50 each and include six nights and seven days of accommodations (no airfare). To enter, or find out more information, visit Maui Raffle HERE, and RCI Timeshare Anywhere in the World Raffle HERE.

Winners will be drawn at 5 p.m. on May 12, 2023. Since it is all online, no need to be present to win, and the club's president will call the winners that night!

The second fundraiser will be the inaugural Mad Hatter Tea Party from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, April 30, 2023. Create a Mad Hatter hat with ideas from Pinterest and the internet, or come in costume and join them down the rabbit hole where being “bonkers” is quite alright. Tickets are not yet available so check back soon at www.sitsfundraiser.org to purchase the limited tickets. You’ll enjoy an array of tasty treats, tea, and entertainment, and you’ll have a chance to bid on Signature Soroptimist Baskets all within the beauty of the Grand Hall at Valhalla Tahoe.

The third fundraiser is the club's famous online auction. It will open on the day of the Mad Hatter Tea Party on April 30, and end at 5 p.m. on May 12, The generous local community is donating so there are many unique and great items to bid on, and they can be viewed HERE. And more items are being added daily! Normally there are about 300 auction items.

Donating to SITS during any of these fundraisers allows club members to enhance the lives of women and youth through scholarships, awards, and grants.

Local businesses have stepped forward to help SITS as annual sponsors, another new feature in 2023.
