And the Winners Are…Easterseals Raises Big Bucks, Changes Lives

Drumroll, please! Easterseals Rehabilitation Center just wrapped up its annual heart-pounding “Cool Car, Cold Cash” raffle, and the results are nothing short of spectacular. Not only did the event inject a healthy dose of excitement into the community, but it also made a huge difference in the lives of those served by Easterseals.

We're talking over 2,800 tickets sold, and a grand total of nearly $74,000 raised! Including today’s results, the annual raffle has raised a grand total of $1,849,849 since the year 2000. This isn’t just about a shiny new car or a fat stack of cash; it’s about providing crucial therapy services to people in need. Easterseals is all about breaking down barriers and empowering individuals with disabilities, and this raffle is a testament to the incredible support of our community.

But let’s talk about the lucky winners! Traci & Scott Schaum are now the proud owners of a life-changing decision: a sleek 2024 Nissan Versa S or a cool $20,000 in cash. Talk about a win-win! And let's give a huge shoutout to Kelsey Hargis and Don Dilger for snagging the $5,000 and $1,000 prizes, respectively. You guys are officially the envy of everyone we know!

A massive thank you to Old National Bank for being our incredible sponsor and to Kemper CPA Group for their accounting wizardry. And of course, a heartfelt thanks to every single person who bought a ticket. You're not just winners; you’re heroes!
