Win an Electric Car and Help a Great Nonprofit Fight Climate Change
Victoria Higgins's Fundraising Page: Buy a raffle ticket and help me reach my goal!
TICKETS SOLD SO FAR: 5 Tickets!

I’m helping one of the best grassroots groups in America fight climate change. It’s the Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN) Action Fund. I really, really believe in this group. Every year they raffle an electric car to raise money. So I’m helping them sell tickets. My goal is 3 tickets, raising $600 for a great cause.
This year the raffle prize is a Tesla dream car or a cutting-edge Rivian eclectic pickup truck. The Rivian truck is nearly impossible to get, so they went out and bought one in advance. You’ll get the keys days after you win!
For a raffle ticket price of just $200, you could win a total prize package of at least $190,000 (they even pay your state and federal taxes on the prize!). And no matter what, the planet wins.
Thank you for supporting this nonprofit — and I hope you win the Tesla or Rivian truck. Sincerely, Victoria Higgins

Proceeds from the raffle fund the work of Chesapeake Climate Action Network (CCAN) Action Fund. CCAN Action Fund is the advocacy arm of the Chesapeake Climate Action Network, which renowned author and climate activist Bill McKibben has called “the best regional climate change organization in the world.” Our mission is to promote sustainable energy and transportation policies across the Chesapeake region and nationwide.
Did you know that cars, trucks and other forms of transportation account for nearly 30 percent of America's climate pollution? CCAN Action Fund is raising awareness of better transportation options by raffling a Tesla or Rivian. The proceeds from the raffle will be used to push for cleaner transportation policies at the state and federal levels.

Past Winners

2024 1st Place Raffle Winner
Glen Parker, FL
Anyone can win! Last year’s winners were Glen Parker of Florida, who won a Rivian R1T, and Patricia Hersey of Massachusetts, who won the Ioniq 5. Glen told us driving electric is “so much fun. The acceleration, the smoothness, the quiet, the convenience of charging at home and not worrying about fuel. It’s everything I thought driving electric would be.” He likes “doing truck things and hanging out with truck people.” But he mostly joined “to help the cause.”
Thanks to Glen and other ticket buyers, CCAN Action Fund is able to do great work year round. This year already, we’ve passed policies bringing more renewable energy to Maryland, while working in Virginia to build out green space and bikeable communities. We’re also protecting ratepayers in Washington, DC and helping them lower their bills while cleaning up pollution. And federally, we’re pressuring Congress to unleash the clean energy revolution with historic transmission investments.
