For the fourth year in a row, the Osceola Council on Aging is offering an opportunity for some lucky individual to win a brand-new vehicle, while supporting the council’s efforts of supporting seniors and those in need in Osceola County. This year, the council’s car raffle will feature a 2024 Jeep Wrangler Sport from Gator Automotive Group in Melbourne. If you want a chance to win, you’ll have to act quickly. The raffle takes place today, December 29 at 11:59am.

The proceeds from this year’s sweepstakes will once again support the Council On Aging’s two food pantries (located in Kissimmee and St. Cloud), along with their Meals on Wheels program which delivers more than one thousand meals per day to homebound Osceola seniors. 

The winner will drive home in a 2024 Jeep Wrangler Sport offering 33-inch off-road tires, rear locking differential, Rubicon shocks and legendary Trail Rated® capability. The 4-door, five passenger vehicle is suitable for everyday driving, or off-road capability with its 4-wheel drive suspension, a revised front grille, a standard 12.3-inch infotainment display and 7.0-inch touch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. 

The official drawing will take place on Friday, December 29, at 12 pm, during the council’s annual New Year’s Eve festivities at the Barney Veal Center at the Osceola Council On Aging. This year’s presenting sponsor for the Jeep raffle is Melissa Williams of Goosehead Insurance.

The opportunity to participate is normally $25 per ticket, but in the spirit of the holidays, there are some exciting ticket deals happening. By participating, you not only have a chance to win a Jeep but can make a meaningful impact on the lives of Osceola neighbors in need.
