The New Orleans Saints announced today that the charitable proceeds of the 50/50 Raffle from Sunday’s game against Tampa Bay (11/5) in collaboration with Second Harvest will be donated to Bastion. Bastion is a local nonprofit organization building intentionally designed neighborhoods for returning veterans and their families.
“Having the community come together in any capacity and bridge the military-civilian divide is what Bastion is about,” said Development Director of Bastion Lauren Bowman. “These acts of support connect us and encourage our warriors to keep pushing forward in their transition back to civilian life.”
The jackpot from the 50/50 raffle was $101,680 which was the largest amount raised since the raffle’s inception (2016).
