Organización benéfica rifa una casa de $650,000 en Chicago para recaudar dinero para los niños

Una organización benéfica de los suburbios de Chicago está rifando una casa valorada en 650,000 dólares, todo por una buena causa.

Para una recaudación de fondos, es ambicioso: una rifa benéfica reimaginada. El gran premio son las llaves de una casa de dos pisos, cuatro habitaciones y dos baños y medio en el vecindario Mount Greenwood de Chicago.

“La idea se concibió hace unos 18 meses”, dijo John Quinn, de Gaelic Park Charities, con sede en Oak Forest. “Es alucinante en muchos sentidos… pero es cierto. Todo lo que hay aquí es nuevo. Esta zona fue seleccionada por las escuelas. Queríamos que fuera lo más atractiva posible para que los potenciales ganadores vinieran a vivir aquí”.

Gaelic Park Charities está utilizando el sorteo para recaudar dinero para programas y deportes juveniles. La organización compró la propiedad hace unos años y los miembros de la junta ayudaron a construirla.

“Diseñamos esta casa para que sea atractiva para las personas que esperamos ganarla”, dijo el miembro de la junta directiva John Conroy, propietario de una empresa constructora.

El costo para participar en el concurso es de $100. Sin límite de entradas, el grupo necesita vender 6,700 para alcanzar el punto de equilibrio.

“Mi esperanza es que recaudemos todo el dinero que podamos para mejorar los campos para nuestros hijos”, dijo Conroy.

Si gana pero no quiere la casa, puede optar por la opción en efectivo de $450,000.

El sorteo está previsto para el 24 de marzo en Gaelic Park.

“A la gente le resulta difícil entenderlo, porque por cien dólares se podría ganar una casa por valor de 650,000 dólares”, dijo Quinn.
