What could you do with $15,000?

Buy Christmas presents? Pay off a loan? Get a new wardrobe? Begin a house remodeling project?

Well, you have the chance to win that amount while supporting a great cause. Shorty's Safe Haven is hosting a Fall Frenzy Cash Drawing, offering an exciting opportunity to win big and make a difference.

Tickets for the drawing are available for $100 each, with a total of 1,000 tickets being sold. The virtual drawing is set for Dec. 1 at 4 p.m. and will be broadcast live on Facebook, where winners will be announced. Alongside the grand prize, there are several other cash prizes up for grabs, including $5,000 for second place, $3,000 for third place, and smaller prizes ranging from $1,000 to $200 for fourth through twentieth place.

To ensure the drawing occurs, all tickets must be sold by the event date. Interested participants can purchase tickets through the Shorty's Safe Haven website: https://form.jotform.com/shortyssafehaven/shortysfallfrenzy. For those wishing to mail in their ticket donation, they can reach out to Shorty's Safe Haven on Facebook for the necessary form and mailing address.

Don't miss this unique chance to win substantial cash prizes just in time for Christmas shopping. The funds raised will support Shorty's Safe Haven's mission of bringing hope and healing to children and animals alike.

If you haven't heard about Shorty's Safe Haven, it is a therapy and mentoring program focused on helping foster children. The program teaches life skills such as horse care, fence repair and tire changing, aiming to instill a sense of purpose in participants. Founder Amber Buswell emphasizes the importance of building trust with the horses, stating that many children find comfort in confiding in them rather than traditional counseling. This unique approach provides not only emotional support but also practical skills that can aid the children's futures. The organization's motto, "where hope lives," reflects its mission to empower youth through guidance and equine therapy.

You may have even seen Buswell and other volunteers with Trooper the Pony recently at Foley's Hometown Halloween.
