Former Ilocos Sur Governor Luis “Chavit” Singson is set to mark his upcoming birthday in grand style by giving away a staggering P7 million through his #HappyLifeforAll Birthday Raffle on June 21, 2024.
In an announcement during a recent media gathering, Chavit disclosed his plans to distribute the substantial sum live. The raffle will see P6 million distributed among 600 winners, each receiving P10,000. Additionally, one lucky participant will walk away with the grand prize of P1 million.
“This year, magpapa-raffle ako ng P7 million. Papakita ko sa screen, naka-live. P6 million na tig-P10,000, plus ‘yung isang P1 million, so P7 million lahat,” Chavit shared enthusiastically.
To participate, interested individuals must download Chavit’s e-wallet app, e-Gracia, available on both iOS via the App Store and Android devices via the Play Store. The app serves as a versatile platform for financial transactions, including money transfers, bill payments, mobile credit top-ups, and virtual wallet reloads.
Registration for the raffle requires filling out a form with basic details and providing one’s name and e-Gracia account number. Participants are also asked to submit a selfie wearing sunglasses, akin to Chavit’s signature style.
The raffle draw will be conducted live online on Chavit’s birthday, June 21. Winners will receive their prizes directly through the e-Gracia app, ensuring swift and secure transactions.
Chavit emphasized the convenience of this method, stating, “Doon namin papadala ‘yung premyo para hindi pumunta sa ibang tao.” Winners can easily claim their winnings from any nearby bank.
Reflecting on his motivation for the generous giveaway, Chavit remarked, “Basta meron ako, binibigay ko kasi ‘di naman ako madala ‘pag namatay ako e. Lagi kong sinasabi na ‘money is not yours until you spend it.’ ‘Pag namatay ako, pag-aawayan pa.”
