Five Days Left for a Chance at over $470,000!

KELOWNA, BC, Friday, March 9, 2026 — The countdown for the Heart of BC 50/50 is officially on. With just five days left to buy tickets, the jackpot has already exceeded $470k and continues to grow daily. One lucky winner will walk away with over six figures in tax-free winnings, all while supporting local health and wellness initiatives across the heart of BC.

Each and every ticket purchased is making a real difference in communities across the region. Funds from previous iterations are already supporting health promotion programs directly focusing on chronic disease prevention, physical literacy programs, and most recently, the expansion of the Foundry services in West Kelowna.

Foundry offers young people between 12 and 24 and their caregivers access to free, confidential, and low-barrier supports. Services include drop-in counselling, peer support, physical and sexual health care, access to groups and workshops, and support with education and employment. These are critical services that support some of our most vulnerable community members when they need it most.

In addition, the Heart of BC remains partnered with the YMCA of Southern Interior BC and health foundations across the Interior Health Authority to ensure that every ticket sold makes a real impact in communities of all sizes – proceeds stay where tickets are purchased.

By participating, you’re not only giving yourself the chance to win a life-changing jackpot, but are contributing to meaningful, upstream solutions that are helping to keep people out of hospitals and acute care centres.

Ticket sales close at midnight on March 13, with the grand prize draw taking place on March 27. Don’t miss your chance to win big while making a meaningful difference. Purchase your tickets today at heartofbc.ca.

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.
