To celebrate 30 years of the North Queensland Cowboys, the side has announced its biggest charity raffle to date.

Fans will have the chance to win a 2025 Toyota RAV4 Cruiser and a prize pack valued at $60k, with all proceeds going towards supporting organisations such as the NRL Cowboys House.

The House, a Cowboys Community Foundation program, provides a boarding facility for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to attend school in Townsville.

Cowboys Community Foundation CEO Fiona Pelling said she’s incredibly proud of the club’s work in community contribution and support.

“Since the beginning we’ve been committed to making a difference to as many North Queenslanders as possible, which led to the formation of our dedicated charity in 2015,” she said.

She said none of the work the foundation does could be possible without community support and dedication.

“We’re incredibly grateful to Cowboys members and fans, club and charity partners, government, philanthropic donors, volunteers and the broader community whose ongoing support has enabled us to reach more people each year,” she said.

Raffle tickets can be purchased online, the winner will be drawn on Wednesday, September 3.
