Win a New Chevy Impala and Help Drive Out Hunger

MASSILLON, Ohio - Sept. 12, 2014 - PRLog -- Progressive Chevrolet and the Stark County Hunger Task Force have teamed up once again to kick off the 2^nd Annual Food For The People Car Raffle!  The grand prize for this year’s raffle is a brand new 2014 Chevy Impala, donated by Progressive Chevrolet and the Chevy Network.

Three preliminary drawings and one scavenger hunt will determine the 30 finalists for a final drawing held on Tuesday, October 7^th, 2014 at Progressive Chevrolet.  The first 20 finalists have already been chosen, leaving the last 10 to be drawn during Bike Night at Quaker Steak and Lube in Canton, Ohio on September 24^th, 2014.

Tickets are being sold for $10 each or 3 for $25, and can be purchased at all CSE Federal Credit Union locations, and all Fishers Foods locations now through September 21^st.  Tickets can also be purchased online (http://starkhunger.org/raffle/) or at the Stark County Hunger Task Force through September 23^rd.  The last 10 finalists will be selected during a drawing on September 24^th, 2014 at Quaker Steak and Lube in Canton, Ohio.  Tickets can be purchased at Quaker Steak and Lube until the time of the drawing.

Craig and Tim Sanders, of Progressive Chevrolet, along with Amy Weisbrod of the Stark County Hunger Task Force, are thrilled to host this event for a second year.  Last year’s ticket sales alone reached $29,500 with additional donations and contributions reaching nearly $50,000.  Meanwhile, one lucky winner, Anna Marie Taylor-Lesniewski, left with a brand new Chevy Impala. Each of the 29 remaining finalists received various consolation prizes.

The goal of this event is to help “drive out hunger” in our community.  All proceeds from ticket sales go to the Stark County Hunger Task Force to help feed over 27,000 individuals throughout Stark County.  For each dollar received, 7 pounds of food can be provided.

At this time, participants have approximately a 1 in 1,200 chance of walking away with a new 2014 Chevrolet Impala.  Fishers Foods, Quaker Steak and Lube, Clear Channel, Cruise On In and Dance Party, CSE Federal Credit Union, and Grabowski and Company are all sponsors involved in this great event.
