Phoenix High School’s DECA is hosting a Valentine’s Day Candy Raffle as a fundraiser for the club. The candy raffle is a contest where students guess the amount of candies in a jar, and the winner gets to take the jar with all the candies.The jar includes every kind of candies, from chocolates to jolly ranchers. Each guess costs a total of 25 cents.

The money that is earned through this event will be going towards the DECA club here at phoenix. According to Mr. Carvalho “ a few of the tickets have been sold in advance but no one has guessed the exact number yet”. With a few tickets already sold Carvalho is hoping to sell a total of 100 tickets the day that the actual raffle takes place.

The raffle will be taking place in the commons during break. The raffle has already started but the winner will be drawn Thursday February 9th.
