NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, March 25, 2026 — Tomorrow, the Grand Prize Jackpot Draw will decide who takes home half the pot in the Royal Columbian Hospital 50/50 Lottery.

Tickets must be purchased by 9:00AM Thursday, March 26.

With the jackpot continuing to climb, this is your chance at life-changing winnings, while also helping Royal Columbian Hospital expand care for patients across BC. This year, Royal Columbian Hospital will open the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower, a 10-storey, purpose-built facility that will transform how urgent and specialized care are delivered. Behind the scenes, teams are testing equipment, rehearsing workflows, and preparing to move entire programs into modern spaces designed for today’s, and tomorrow’s, patients. You can buy tickets now.

More than a new building, the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower is a thoughtfully designed environment created to support healing, comfort, and collaboration. It will offer larger clinical spaces that enhance comfort, private rooms that provide dignity and quiet for patients and families, and integrated technology that supports rapid diagnosis and highly coordinated care. Light-filled corridors, purpose-built family areas, and dedicated zones for specialized services reflect a commitment to both patient experience and clinical excellence. 50/50 tickets support this expansion.

Inside the new tower, the Emergency Department will more than double in size, a new interventional “superfloor” will speed treatment for heart attacks and strokes, and critical care capacity will grow dramatically. Families will also find comfort in new maternity and neonatal spaces built to keep parents and newborns close.

The Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower represents a shared vision for a healthier future. As opening day approaches, your support helps bring this extraordinary step forward to life for patients and families who need it most.

Time is almost up. Secure your ticket before the deadline.
