Fort William Rotary - HOUSE LOTTERY

The Rotary House Lottery had its beginning in 1986. Now in our 24th year, we are proud to have donated in excess of $2,500,000 to local and district charities, youth organizations, educational events and community activities and infrastructure.

The success of the Rotary House Lottery is in part due to the faithful ticket buyers as well as the hard work of many Rotarians and others in the community who give so willingly of their time and effort. We are proud to showcase the quality workmanship of our contractors and the sub-trades who have made our homes so desirable.

The concept of the House Lottery evolved through the leadership and now memory of fellow Rotarian, Steve Syme, who lost his life in the Dryden Air Crash.
