BUY YOUR TICKETS NOW!
 
Yearly, Life After Fifty hosts a paper-based lottery as our primary annual fundraising event but due to the pandemic, like many, we have opted for an electronic raffle.  The funds raised will help support the shift to virtual programming and access to low-cost meals for seniors in the Windsor-Essex area.  The on-going work has never been more important as the lockdown continues and the dangers of social isolation threaten our most vulnerable population.

“Not being able to hold in-person events makes things much tougher, combined with the fact that there are also challenges that have prevented our usual volunteers from supporting the sales of our paper-based lottery,” said Dorothy Davis, chair of Life After Fifty’s marketing committee.
 
“On the bright side, the one great thing about this format, with our traditional lottery there were a limited number of tickets. Now, there is no limit on the number of tickets, which means there’s no limit on the jackpot.

What is it? A free telephone-based seniors' activity program.
Offering a variety of fun activities, discussion groups & more.

Who can participate? Anyone age 50+. Living in Windsor Essex. All you need is a telephone, no computer or data required.

How can I participate? On the day and time of a chosen program, you can use the Steps to Connect (below) to call yourself in. If at any time you require assistance, simply dial *0 to talk to an operator. Follow up registration is required.
