Bridgend Community Lotto Coming Soon!
Bridgend Association of Voluntary Organisations (BAVO) is thrilled to announce the upcoming launch of the ‘Bridgend Community Lotto’, a brand-new, exciting fundraising initiative designed to give local people the chance to win prizes of up to £25,000 while also supporting good causes in their local community.
Developed in partnership with a leading external lottery provider, the ‘Bridgend Community Lotto’ has been created as an engaging way for local people to support the amazing work of community and voluntary organisations across Bridgend County Borough.
Every ticket purchased will directly benefit the ticket-holders’ chosen local charity, voluntary group, or community organisation. With 60% of the ticket price being distributed to local causes, the scheme will help vital community-led activities to continue to thrive at a time when they are needed most.
Community groups will soon be invited to register as beneficiaries, with the official launch taking place at the start of Trustees’ Week on November 3rd at Halo Leisure, Bridgend. Lottery ticket sales will go live shortly after via a dedicated purpose-built website.
The community lotto model has already proved a huge success in other areas of the UK, raising thousands of pounds to support grassroots projects, and now Bridgend County is set to join the growing movement.
