Not so easy as you think.

50% of the money goes to the winner

50% goes to Flames profit
-15% of that money goes to 50/50 ticket sellers (Volunteers, Hockey/Soccer/Lacrosse teams, organized groups, etc.)
- Any combination of the remaining 35% goes to Flames charities or pure Flames profit.


(I've done five or so 50/50 fundraisers for my team)
