For the past 13 years, the REAL Big Raffle has assisted in funding Meals on Wheels and other programs in that each purchase of a raffle coupon ($50.00 each) provides up to five hot, nutritious meals  for seniors who are unable to provide meals for themselves.

 There are some changes this year required by the United States Postal Service. Please read below for instructions:

If you received a postcard in the mail and wish to request raffle coupons, call (574) 284-7104, email events@realservices.org, or complete this form. You may also stop by our office Monday - Friday from 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Once you have completed the form, we will mail you coupons. After you receive your coupons, return the coupon stub to us along with your check or cash payment. Mail your coupons back to the following address:

REAL Services
Attn: Development Department
1151 South Michigan Street
South Bend, IN 46601

The same procedure applies even if you did not receive a postcard. We welcome all to purchase coupons to help our neighbors in need!

Note: The United States Postal Services prohibits us from mailing coupons without them being requested first, which is why we must change our delivery method this year.

If you'd like to sponsor a gift card prize for the 2024 REAL BIG Raffle, email events@realservices.org.

Only 2,000 coupons are sold.

There are two early bird drawings where you are eligible to win one of 50 prizes in each drawing, (total of 50 prizes for both early bird drawings) and still be eligible for the Grand Prize! Each early bird drawing prize is valued at a minimum of $50.
