Hugo's Doggone Good Meat Raffle!

Join us for an evening of prizes, raffles, food, and fun--all while helping Western New York families afford life-saving veterinary care.

First Spin: 7:00PM PM
Lancaster Elks Lodge #1478
Every Spin Saves a Pet!
Buying a ticket to Hugo’s Doggone Good Meat Raffle isn’t just about winning meat and having a great night out with friends: with every spin, we’re able to help more pets stay in the homes of the families who love them. Take Ruger, who needed an emergency foreign body surgery, or Ryder, who was ejected from the vehicle during a car accident. Every family who receives funds for their pets’ life-saving veterinary care is another step closer to our mission of ensuring that financial barriers are never an obstacle to care. We can only achieve this mission with your support!
