June 28, 2025 - Yeti Winner Announced!

Good afternoon, Houston Illini Club supporters,

I’d like to personally thank everyone who participated in the raffle of an Illini themed Yeti Tundra cooler!  This raffle raised $920 in raffle tickets and while I wish every participant had won, I’m pleased to announce that Adam Green’s number was selected! The raffle was held during the Houston Illini Club’s summer Portillos & Pool party so stay tuned to social media where we will post the video of our raffle.
In addition to the raffle, during this timeframe, we received many generous donations to our scholarship fund. In fact, during June, we collected approximately $2,000! This club has big things happening, and it all begins with you. So thank you again and have a safe & fun Fourth of July!

Go Illini,

Jason Cables
