FAQ'S

What does this support?

Since 1887, the Rescue Mission Alliance has put love into action through food, shelter, clothing, and hope. We operate programs in Syracuse, Auburn, and Binghamton, NY, tailored to meet the needs of each community. Among the services we offer are emergency shelter, meals, supportive permanent housing, employment resources, and spiritual care. In all of our locations, case managers help guests develop individual plans and connect with the support they need to leave homelessness and hunger behind.

When is the drawing?

Sales close at the beginning of the 7th inning, and the winner is announced at the end of the game. Make sure you scan your ticket and fill in your information so you will be alerted if you are the winner.

Jackpots less than $175.00 will be kept open and roll over into the next home game. This is done to help ensure that winners see a return on their ticket purchase

How do I know if I won?

Scan your ticket and provide your personal information! You will then receive an email with a link for updates and your ticket numbers. This email will also include a link to check the winning numbers. The following business day, someone from Rescue Mission will email you with information for any next steps.

What happens next? When can I get my money?

Winners will receive an email from the Rescue Mission with follow-up steps, including completing a W9 form. Since this is gambling, winnings must be tracked in accordance with NYS law.
Depending on how quickly paperwork is completed and submitted, you will receive a check within 5-10 days of the drawing.

Can Canadians win?

Yes! There will just be different paperwork during the follow-up process.
