We appreciate all those that support us and want to give back to those that go above and beyond. I’ve already had two people buy $200 worth of tickets which is very generous donation to our charity. We are going to make a new deal that if you buy $200 even if it’s in separate purchases, we will send you a hat and one of our coins. You could purchase tickets online at w4wh.com/store-home/ or hit the donate button and send us a check to our mailing address. We really appreciate the support and know that your donation will go to the heroes. ... See MoreSee Less

W4WH would like to announce the 2026 "Fishing with a Friend" raffle tickets are now on sale. We have sold out every year, you can purchase tickets online at w4wh.com/store-home/. Once you purchase a ticket your name will be written on the stub and you will get a text of your ticket numbers. Remember only 1000 tickets sold and winner is chosen from the Ohio Pick 3 evening drawing. If you win a day of fishing you will be texted with your captains name and phone to arrange your day of fishing. Please thank these captains without them donating a day of fishing this raffle would not be possible. These are the same captains that take our heroes fishing free of charge. We thank all our captains if your looking to book a charter please help those that helps our heroes.
The other way to purchase tickets is go see Craig Lewis at Erie Outfitters in Sheffield Lake. A big thanks to Craig for helping us sell tickets. Erie Outfitters always supports us both with selling and also donating equipment to our heroes.
The "Fishing with a Friend" raffle is important to our organizations ability to run our events completely free to our heroes. If you know of a VFW, American legion, or any club that would sell tickets for us please send a DM. ... See MoreSee Less
