1st Charity Splits Pooled Raffle Winner
We would like to thank everyone that was involved in our Help Save Pets event which concluded on April 1st. The Winner was Margie W. from Congerville, IL. We asked Margie what she was going to do with her winnings and we were very taken by her response. Letter from Margie W- "Thank you so much for the check that I received on Saturday. I got involved with Charity Splits because of my niece Emily. I wanted her to know that I supported her and her efforts at the South Suburban Humane Society in Chicago Heights. I never once thought about winning anything. When I received the call to tell me that I had won, I seriously thought it was someone playing an April Fools joke on me as it was April 1st. I decided to use my winnings to donate more than 10% to my church for our new building fund. Then I purchased 2 twin blow up mattresses for our 2 youngest grandchildren to use when we go on our annual "Family of 11" outing to the Ozarks in June. The rest, after taxes, will be spent on a Basshound 10.2 boat for my husband for his birthday in May." Signed, Margie W. We here at Charity Splits are proud to have such a caring and generous winner as Margie.
