Again the GSPCA have on sale Channel Island Christmas Lottery tickets at our reception area open 7 days a week at the Animal Shelter in St Andrews.
The jackpot for this year’s Channel Islands Christmas Lottery is now an amazing £675,000.
The guaranteed first prize continues to rise as tickets are purchased ahead of the draw on the 19th December 2017.
The second prize is set at £100,000 and the third prize will be £25,000, as well as 10 guaranteed winners of £1,000.
With each ticket which is priced at £2 you have a chance at winning instant cash prizes on the Christmas Lottery tickets by revealing a Santa Claus in the scratch area.
The scratch prizes range from £2-£5,000.
The profits from the Channel Islands Christmas Lottery will go to the Association of Guernsey Charities, who benefited from £212,677.71 from last year’s proceeds.
The GSPCA were one of the many local charities to benefit from a grant from last years proceeds which helped towards much needed high priority repairs from fixing doors and windows to gutters and roofs at the GSPCA.
Malcolm Woodhams Chairman from the Association of Guernsey Charities said “It’s great to see that the guaranteed first prize has increased again to £675,000 as we reach ever closer to the million pound mark.”
“Many worthy charities apply to us each year for support; some of these charities can be small and so may find it difficult to gain the exposure that larger charities benefit from.”
“We aim to help as many Guernsey charities as we possibly can with the proceeds from this draw, so buying Channel Island Christmas Lottery Tickets in Guernsey is one way of supporting good causes and being in with a chance to win one of the big prizes as well.”
“It’s not too late to organise a syndicate with a business or group, and each block of 50 tickets has a guaranteed win of at least £22.”
Steve Byrne, GSPCA Manager said "We are hugely grateful to the Christmas Lottery for helping fund essential works and repairs this year and last year they helped provide the GSPCA with funds for a much safer new entrance which also helps provide additional banking and hedging for wildlife."
"At the GSPCA we sell Christmas Lottery Tickets which help many local good causes every year in Guernsey."
"It has been recently announced that the Channel Island Christmas Lottery jackpot is up to £675,000 and with continued support this will no doubt increase."
"The Christmas Lottery has helped with a number of projects at the GSPCA over the years and we wish to thank all that support and that are involved with this amazing good cause."
“Tickets at the GSPCA are on sale 7 days a week and the team here have syndicate going.”
“Thank you to all that support the Channel Island Christmas Lottery it is a wonderful way to help many local charities and good causes.”
