On Friday, December 5, 2025, the NHS will draw three winners for their first annual meat raffle during the varsity basketball game. The prizes include a meat bundle worth $420; one worth $200; and one worth $150! See the pictures for a detailed list of what is included in each bundle. You do not need to be present to win your bundle - but if you come, you can cheer on our Huskies! We will call you if you win and are not present.

There are still some tickets available for $10 each. Please email Heidi Macias at maciash@hpsmi.org with any questions or to purchase your tickets! Tickets will be sold until we run out - even up to the last few minutes before the drawing!

All proceeds go to The Giving Tree Project that was started in 2015. This inititave pairs students from our own elementary school to shop with current NHS members to get much needed warm winter gear and clothing.

*Not much freezer space? No need to worry! Keep what you want and gift the rest to your family and friends or your local food pantry. What a way to give back to your community, fill your freezer, and share with your loved ones.

Thank you for your support

Los premios incluyen un paquete de carne con un valor de $420; uno con un valor de $200; y uno con un valor de $150. Vea las imágenes para ver una lista detallada de lo que incluye cada paquete. No necesita estar presente para ganar su paquete, pero si viene, ¡puede animar a nuestros Huskies! Le llamaremos si gana y no está presente.

Todavía quedan boletos disponibles por $10 cada uno. Si tiene alguna pregunta o desea comprar sus boletos, envíe un correo electrónico a Heidi Macias a maciash@hpsmi.org. ¡Los boletos se venderán hasta agotar existencias, incluso hasta los últimos minutos antes del sorteo!

Todo lo recaudado se destinará al Proyecto del Árbol Generoso, iniciado en 2015. Esta iniciativa conecta a estudiantes de nuestra escuela primaria con miembros actuales del NHS para que compren ropa y equipo de invierno muy necesarios.

*¿No tiene mucho espacio en el congelador? ¡No te preocupes! Quédate con lo que quieras y regala el resto a tus familiares y amigos o a tu banco de alimentos local. ¡Qué manera de contribuir a tu comunidad, llenar tu congelador y compartir con tus seres queridos!

Gracias por tu apoyo.
