NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, September 4, 2026 — Congratulations to the first weekly $1,000 winner, J. Marshall! When you win the weekly prize, you’re still in the running for the jackpot on September 24 too.
The opening of the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower marks a major transformation for Royal Columbian Hospital. With modern patient spaces, advanced technology and expanded services, the tower is helping reshape care for patients, families and care teams.
Key to the expansion of critical care infrastructure at RCH is the purchase of life-saving equipment. When you buy a 50/50 lottery ticket, you’re helping to fund items like the Novus PFX-C2 for the Pulmonary Function Lab. Using the Novus PFX-C2 allows care teams to determine if a patient’s breathing issues is due to their heart or lungs. Giving care teams an overall picture of a patient’s heart and lung function simultaneously can be crucial for decisions about surgeries, cancer treatments, or transplants.
Your 50/50 ticket helps Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation continue supporting the equipment and innovation that make this level of care possible. And on September 24th, your ticket could also win you half the jackpot.
