Baseball fan Rosie O’Donnell and Rosie’s Broadway Kids Charity with their efforts to provide art programs to New York City public school children is having a spring training raffle to raise money.
Rosie’s Broadway Kids was inspired by Rosie O’Donnell’s life-long concern for children, love of theater, and dream of teaching. In 2003, thanks to the generosity of Rosie and Kelli O’Donnell, Artistic and Executive Director Lori Klinger created RBKids, dedicated to providing quality instruction in music and dance at no cost to New York City public schools or students.
Eighty percent of students who participate in Rosie’s Broadway Kids are from low-income families. Rosie’s Broadway Kids serves more than 5,100 teachers, students, and their family members at 22 schools.
The raffle includes the following prizes:
- Winner will win a 19 seat Luxury Suite at National Stadium to watch the Washington Nationals take on the Boston Red Sox in their April 3, 2010 Spring Training Game. This package will include In-Suite food and beverages plus parking passes.
- Cash payment of $1,300.75 to mitigate the Winner’s tax liability from winning the prize (paid directly to the IRS and Commonwealth of Massachusetts)
Entry Deadline is March 19, 2010 at 11am EST.
