Native Land Cares is about finding meaningful ways to show up for our Nation, our culture, and the communities around us.

This summer, we wanted to do something especially for the youngest members of the Unkechaug Nation.

The Native Land Cares End of Summer Kids Raffle was created exclusively for our Nation’s children — a simple way to celebrate our kids, give them something exciting to look forward to, and create another positive memory within our community.

Through Native Land Cares, our commitment is simple:

Carry the Culture and Care for the Community.

A Little End-of-Summer Fun

Before summer came to a close, we invited Unkechaug families to enter their children into our End of Summer Kids Raffle.

We were happy to see so many families participate and excited to create something specifically for our kids.

At the center of the raffle was our End of Summer Prize Basket, built around one last memorable summer experience.

Grand Prize

One child received:

Four Splish Splash tickets for the family, along with additional Native Land Cares swimming and water-park accessories to complete the summer experience.

Two Additional Winners

We also selected two additional winners, each receiving a:

$100 Visa Gift Card

That gave us three winners in total.

And the Winners Are…

We’re excited to congratulate the three winners of the 2026 Native Land Cares End of Summer Kids Raffle.
