Unleash Your Generosity and Support Your Favorite Committee in ISPE-CaSA Charitable Giving Contest

Each year, ISPE-CaSA hosts a charity event at our Life Sciences Technology Show. As part of the 2023 Tech Show, our association committees are once again competing to raise money for 5 adopted charities:

• Education Committee: Raleigh Rescue Mission
• Membership/Networking Committee: Ronald McDonald House
• IT/Social Media Committee: Food Bank of Central & Eastern N.C.
• Women In Pharma Committee: The Women's Center
• Technology Conference Committee:  Autism Society of North Carolina
• Emerging Leaders Committee: Boys & Girls Club of Wake County



From now until February 28 you can donate online to help a charity you support win the competition. ISPE-CaSA Board of Directors will give $800 to each of the charities and an extra $1,000 to the charity that raises the most through donations. We will also be selling raffle tickets to support these charities at the Tech Show.

How to participate:

Visit our Charity Donation site, and click on the red button that says "Tickets." You will see a menu to make your donations. Simply use the scroll bar to find your favorite charity or committee and choose the amount you wish to give. Do not donate directly to the charities. While that certainly would benefit the charity of your choice, it would not count toward a committee's collections.

Donators will be entered into a 50/50 raffle drawing at the Feb. 28 Tech Show, where the winner will win 50% of the raffle ticket sales. The remaining 50% will be donated to the charities.
