The BIG Meat Raffle Is Here – And It’s Going To Be Legendary

BIG Meat Raffle, News, Our Events

Western New York — get ready to win BIG, cheer loud, and defend potential… one steak at a time.

WNY knows how to do two things well: show up for community… and show up for meat.

Welcome to the FIRST-EVER BIG Meat Raffle, hosted by our incredible Ambassadors Board – and trust us, this is not your average night out.

We’re talking LOTS of meat (yes, LOTS), high-energy rounds, cheering, laughter, and that electric feeling when your number gets called. Who doesn’t love meat? Exactly.

But this night isn’t just about steaks, chops, and bragging rights.

We’ll also have dozens of silent auction items, incredible baskets, and surprise goodies you won’t want to miss. It’s the perfect chance to grab something awesome while supporting something even bigger.

❤️ Why It Matters

  • Learn more about Big Brothers Big Sisters of Erie, Niagara & the Southern Tier
  • Meet a Big and hear firsthand what mentorship really means
  • Ask questions
  • And if you’re feeling inspired… sign up to become a Big

Because while we’re raffling meat, we’re also defending the potential of local kids.

This is our Ambassador Board’s first-ever Meat Raffle – and they are bringing the heat.

The energy will be high.
The vibe will be fun.
The purpose will be clear.

  • ✔️ Plenty of free parking
  • ✔️ Bring your own snacks
  • ✔️ Bring your friends
  • ✔️ Bring your loud cheering voice

It’s community. It’s competition. It’s impact.
And it’s going to be BIG.
