The Changan Uni-K is part of the Changan brand of vehicles sold by Tortola Auto Group (TAG). The Changan brand is swiftly growing in popularity in the [British] Virgin Islands.

Valued at a retail price of $42, 995.00, one lucky person will drive away with the vehicle when the final draw is held on Friday, December 20, 2024, at Delta Petroleum in Pasea Estate.

The cost of a ticket is only $10.00.

Grateful for the support- President, Rotary Club of Central Tortola Annill Daniel

The President of the Rotary Club of Central Tortola, Annill Daniel, said the support and contributions from the community have transformed the annual raffle into a successful fundraising event for the Rotary Club of Central Tortola. 

“We are incredibly grateful for our continuous partnership and contributions,” he said.

It's a win, win situation- Shan Mohamed

Meanwhile, Shan Mohamed, Past President of the Rotary Club of Central Tortola and Managing Director of Nagico Insurances showed off the Changan Uni-K to be raffled during an interview with JTV Channel 55 on Saturday, August 3, 2024. 

The vehicle, he said, has many features and the Rotary team was intentional when choosing the Changan Uni-K to be raffled. 

Mohamed added, “In case you don’t win it, on the flip side, the money that Rotary receives, a hundred percent goes back to the community. So I think it’s a win, win, win.”

Those who have purchased tickets also have an opportunity to win one of four early bird draws. The draws of $1000.00 will take place on October 25, November 15, November 24 and December 13, 2024.

Representatives of sponsors who gave remarks at the launch of the car raffle were B2B Sales Manager of C&W Business, Bernice Magloire-Williams; and Chief Executive Officer of Mi Amor, Eileen Bourke.
