How our Fundraisers Work: All the Details

BaseballMania Game Cards Details

BaseballMania is an exciting sweepstakes fundraiser based on professional baseball. All sweepstakes game cards have an equal chance to win prize money based on the performance of the random baseball teams printed on the back. Game cards contain 3 random teams in each of the first 10 full weeks of the pro baseball season (you get 3 new teams each week). To play the game, participants simply add up the runs scored by their 3 teams each week. Every week, the 20 highest scoring game cards and the 3 lowest scoring game cards all win prizes. In addition, two grand prizes are awarded at the end of the 10 weeks. There are 4,060 unique game cards, each of which has a minimum 1 in 18 chance to win a prize during the fundraiser.

Every week, the 20 highest scoring game cards, and the 3 lowest scoring game cards all win prizes… a new chance in each of the 10 weeks of the sweepstakes! There are 4,060 unique game cards, each of which has a minimum 1 in 18 chance to win a prize during the season.
