Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to our Helping Hands basket raffle!

Are you looking for a fun way to support Aspire of WNY? Well, do we have one for you!

Aspire of WNY’s Helping Hands program, which assists families/individuals with disabilities in emergencies, is putting on its annual Chicken BBQ, and this year, they have a basket raffle AND 50/50. We’re encouraging anyone in Chautauqua County to let us cook you dinner on May 11 while you support a great cause. Dinners are $15 each. Raffle tickets are $10 for 1 sheet, $25 for 3 sheets, and special basket items are $5/ticket.

For those interested in tickets, for dinner AND/OR the basket raffle, you can click here to purchase. If you are buying physical raffle tickets online, you will receive an email before the raffle to indicate where you would like us to put your tickets. Or, if you come to pick up your dinner, you can put the raffle tickets in the baskets at our Mall Boulevard location. Either way, we’ve made it easy for all to participate and enjoy. If you have any questions, feel free to email Tracy Flagella, at teflagel@aspirewny.org
