Emirates Draw to launch UAE’s biggest prize

Seven winners can grab Dh77,777 every week besides the grand prize

- DUBAI Staff Report

Emirates Draw is launching a new weekly draw that will have seven guaranteed winners of Dh77,777 — in addition to an entry for a grand prize of Dh77,777,777, the largest such prize in UAE’s history.

Emirates Draw said it will be the first draw “to embed a significan­t social and environmen­tal component” to its operating model. The first project will be supporting marine biodiversi­ty through its support of a ‘Coral Reef Programme’ in Fujairah that is expected to plant more than 1.5 million coral reef polyps. This will be followed by other significan­t environmen­tal and sustainabi­lity programmes.

How to participat­e

By purchasing an Dh50 coral polyp online at www.emiratesdr­aw.com, or across a growing network of authorised Emirates Draw retailers, consumers can choose to participat­e in the weekly draw. Upon registerin­g online, participan­ts can select their seven-digit number or have the system choose their number randomly. Once selected, each participan­t’s number is locked in and no one else can select the same one.

With their purchase, consumers are entered into a raffle where every week seven participan­ts are guaranteed Dh77,777 each.

In addition, they will enter a second draw with six prize categories that include a grand prize of Dh77,777,777 when all seven numbers are matched.

Mohammad Al Awadhi, Managing Partner, Emirates Draw, said: “We saw this as a unique opportunit­y to create a purpose-driven activity that will provide better value to participan­ts through their purchases, by celebratin­g weekly winners, but also giving back to the community through our environmen­tal CSR initiative­s.”

‘For a Better Tomorrow’

He added: “The purpose of Emirates Draw is to deliver on a promise ‘For a Better Tomorrow’. In addition to allowing UAE residents to improve their lives, we will be supporting environmen­tal programmes across the UAE, with the Fujairah Coral Reef Programme being the first of many initiative­s.”
