The Hunt Family Foundation will debut 50/50 Raffle in 2013 to benefit local charities

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Hunt Family Foundation will be sponsoring a 50/50 raffle at all home games for the 2013 season that will benefit local charities. Proceeds from each raffle will be contributed to the designated charity through the Hunt Family Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established by the Hunt family in 1983 to support charitable agencies in the greater Kansas City community.

Individuals will be able to purchase raffle tickets from sellers prior to the game in the parking lots as well as in-stadium from vendors with hand-held mobile devices. For more detailed information please contact staff members at Fans First Booths presented by Sprint.

Fans will have the option of purchasing tickets in pre-determined denominations that include one ticket for $2, three tickets for $5, 10 tickets for $10 and 40 tickets for $20.  Once purchased, fans will receive a single ticket identifying their raffle numbers. The scoreboard and other video displays throughout Arrowhead Stadium will provide fans with updates on the current value of the total prize pool. All transactions must be made in cash. No credit cards will be accepted.

Raffle ticket sales will conclude at the end of the third quarter. At the conclusion of the raffle, a winning ticket will be drawn and the result will be announced to fans during the forth quarter. The winning number will also be posted on www.kcchiefs.com and the winner will have 30 days to claim the prize after the game. 

Each week, the selected charity will be identified and announced prior to and during each game. The charity scheduled to kick off the program will be the Chiefs Charity Game partner, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City.
