Fordingbridge Museum receives no official funding and relies on donations and money raised by the Friends of Fordingbridge Museum. One of the ways we do this is by running a 50 50 Club.
What is the 50 50 Club? Our ’50 50 Club’ is a quarterly prize draw run by the Friends of Fordingbridge Museum. 50% of cash generated makes up the lottery prizes and 50% will be used, in our case, to support Fordingbridge Museum.
How many pries will there be?There will be 3 prizes every quarter with an extra Christmas Prize in December.
When will the prizes be drawn? Prizes will be drawn around 15th of March, June, September and December.
How much can I win? First prize is 25% of quarterly income, second prize: 15%, third prize: 5%. The Christmas Prize will comprise 5% income cumulative over 12 months.
How much will it cost? An annual payment of £12 entitles each member to one stake of £3 in each quarterly draw for a year. More than one stake per draw can be bought, for example an annual payment of £24 entitles the member to 2 stakes in each draw.
Who can join? Membership is open to anyone over the age of 16 years and is not exclusive to members of Fordingbridge Museum.
If you wish to join please complete the application form (link Below) and standing order mandate and return to the Promoter Stuart Grant. (Cheques will also be accepted, payable to ‘Fordingbridge Museum 50 50 Club’.) Please do join. You really will help the Museum and you could win a prize!
