Bluewater Pools and Spas has raised more than $17,000 through its 'Raffle 4 Respite' program.
All the funds go to Windsor-Essex Family Respite to help ensure 1,100 local families get the care they need.
This year's grand prize winner received a $5,000 backyard makeover.
The Bluewater Pools 'Raffle 4 Respite' has raised nearly $70,000 since it began.
