ONTARIO, Ontario, December 4, 2025 — Meet Lisa, who took home $980,910 last year December by winning the HSN 50/50 grand prize. Here is what she shared about winning the HSN 50/50 – “Winning the HSN 50/50 is beyond my wildest dreams. I definitely had to take a few moments to gather myself on the phone when I received the call. Everyone can dream of winning a big cash prize, but to actually win it? It’s surreal. There’s a town a little north of me – Port Elgin – and it’s very much my happy place. With my winnings from the HSN 50/50, I’m going to find the perfect retirement house for me and my rescue dog Gracie and make my happy place my permanent place.”
Meet Rohit, another HSN 50/50 grand prize winner. Here’s what Rohit had to say about winning $426,252 while donating back $10,001 to HSN Foundation. – “It’s an incredible surprise to win. I saw the last chance email with just a couple of hours left to the ticket deadline and figured I would buy tickets.
Winning the HSN 50/50 is certainly a special moment for me, but it also feels like things have come full circle in a way. When my father passed away in 2009 with esophageal cancer, my family knew the importance of the amazing cancer treatment he received at the Cancer Centre and its importance to Sudbury and surrounding communities,” said Rohit.
“From a young age, my parents instilled in me the importance of giving back. I remember travelling to India with them when I was young and providing food to a small village. Those lessons passed on to me and my family’s history here made the decision to give a simple one. If I have the capacity and the capability to give back, why would I keep it all to myself?”
