Help Make Kids Mighty

Your support could be the key to the next big breakthrough.

BC Children’s is the only hospital in the province devoted exclusively to children. As one of the world’s top-ranked pediatric hospitals, it leads the way in confronting many of the most pressing health challenges facing kids today—from cancer to heart disease and brain health.

They have a secret tool in this quest: an on-site Research Institute. Over 2,000 research professionals tirelessly work to understand the origins of illnesses, develop groundbreaking treatments and move closer to cures. As 70% of researchers are also health care professionals providing care in the hospital, life-changing discoveries can be brought from the laboratory bench straight to a child’s bedside faster and more efficiently.

Your support plays a pivotal role in accelerating the translation of these discoveries. And beyond propelling this work, your contribution also empowers researchers to dream even bigger. Thank you for shaping the future of children’s health care.

Don’t miss out. Get your St. Paul's Foundation 50/50 tickets.

VANCOUVER, BC, August 21, 2025 — Do you have your St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle tickets yet? One lucky winner will take home half the jackpot, while the other half will go directly toward supporting patients, long-term care residents, and their families with compassionate, comforting care across BC.

Sleeper Chairs: A place to rest, so family and loved ones can stay close

When a loved one is in the hospital, you want to be by their side – but spending hours in an uncomfortable chair only adds to the exhaustion.

Family members and loved ones are an integral part of a patient’s care team, providing emotional support and comfort in their recovery process. They may help with meals, personal care, translation, communicating important information, and alert medical staff to issues that need attention in critical care situations.

Some loved ones come from out-of-town and are at the patient’s bedside for many hours, and some will even stay overnight. Sleeper chairs, which can be converted into a flat bed, allow family members and visitors to lie down and rest comfortably by the patient’s side instead of travelling back and forth from home or their hotel.

Thanks to raffle supporters like you, family members have a comfortable place to recharge – so they can take care of themselves while staying strong for the ones they love.

A humble hallmark of the compassionate care offered to patients and residents throughout Providence.

More tickets = more compassion + more chances to win!

Tickets are available for purchase until Aug 26, 2025. The winner will be drawn on Aug 28, 2025. Ticket bundles are available to increase your chances of winning!

1 for $10
20 for $25
120 for $50
300 for $75(the best value and greatest chance to win)

Remember the more tickets you buy, the more chances you have to win!
