Highlands Quarters for Cause benefitting NU-HOPE

Highlands Quarters for a Cause- an exciting blend of auction/raffles- is benefiting NU-HOPE Elder Care Services on Tuesday, May 14th. The event is held at the at the Sebring Woman’s Club (across from Veterans Beach on Lake Jackson). Doors open at 6pm for refreshments and to view the vendor tables and raffle items, with the full event starting at 7.

At Quarters for a Cause, dozens of items are raffled off in a fun and unique method. When the evening ends, a local cause is provided a generous donation.

How does this work? When participants first come into the event, they purchase an auction-type, numbered paddle. When an item is being raffled, participants place their non-refundable ‘bid’ (usually 2 quarters) into bowls at each table then hold their paddle high up in the air, indicating they had entered a ‘bid’. A number is drawn. The lucky person who has the matching number on their paddle wins… as long as they ‘bid’ on the item! If that person did not bid, they keep drawing numbers until someone wins the prize.

It may sound complicated, but it is actually very easy, and the room is filled with experienced people who are willing to show how to play. Just bring plenty of quarters and friends for a night of fun and excitement, all benefiting a worthy cause!

In addition to the raffle/auction, vendors offer a variety of items for sale. Food is also available for purchase, also benefiting a worthwhile cause.
