Nanaimo Community Hospice Society is thrilled to share their largest fundraising initiative to date.

Nanaimo Hospice is facing an all-time high in demand for their programs and services.

This Dream Home Lottery is a partnership and an oppourtunity to combine quality craftsmanship and compassion while creating community. 100% of the proceeds from this lottery will allow Nanaimo Community Hospice to expand its current programs and establish a foundation that will support the future build of a stand-alone, residential hospice that is desperately needed in our community.

The odds of this Lottery are what dreams are made of, with only 25,000 tickets available – this $1.7-million home could be yours for only $100. Alongside of the Dream Home Lottery, there is a 50/50 Draw, with the pot over $448,000 and growing!

About Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation

From the beginning, Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster has stood at the heart of health care in British Columbia. Created by visionary pioneers to provide compassionate care to those building a new province, we have participated in the social and economic changes of British Columbia since 1862. Today, we are one of the province’s busiest hospitals, serving a population of close to two million people. We are a regional referral hospital for cardiac, trauma, neurosciences, high-risk maternity and neonatal intensive care. No other hospital in the province provides all of these services, at this level of care, on one site. We provide the highest level of care to the most critically ill and injured from throughout the province.

The hospital is within the Fraser Health region, one of the fastest growing health regions in Canada. Its population is expected to grow to 2.24 million people by 2030. 

To meet this increase in demand, Royal Columbian Hospital is undergoing one of the most ambitious hospital redevelopments in Canadian history. This redevelopment goes beyond rebuilding a hospital. It is transformational. This multi-year, multi-phase $1.49 billion redevelopment will revolutionize the way we deliver care to our patients by creating a world-class, state-of-the-art hospital that provides uncompromising care.

The cornerstone of the project – a new Acute Care Tower – will elevate lifesaving care that serves one third of our province’s population in the largest and fastest growing health region in BC.

At approximately 55,000 square metres, the Acute Care Tower is the ‘crown jewel’ of our redevelopment. Scheduled for completion in 2025, the Acute Care Tower will include an interventional super floor with operating rooms and interventional radiology and cardiology suites, a new Emergency Department with its own imaging unit, new larger maternity, pediatric, and neonatal intensive care units, and multiple floors for acute and critical care patients. 

With almost double the current footprint, redevelopment will significantly increase the current capacity of RCH by over approximately 50% to 675 beds and will provide highly sophisticated critical care technologies and treatments. Coupled with the Mental Health and Substance Use Wellness Centre that opened in the summer of 2020 as part of the first phase of redevelopment, the Acute Care Tower will allow our physicians and health care team to treat 11,300 more patients each year.

Our vision is to create a world-class hospital: a state-of-the art facility that provides uncompromising care and remarkable patient experiences. With a larger footprint and the introduction of cutting-edge technology, we will continue to respond to the needs of patients in their most urgent, life-altering moments.

Get your tickets today, support our caregivers, and help to provide care to those in need.

Today, Royal Columbian is one of British Columbia’s busiest hospitals, serving a population of close to two million people.

No other hospital in the province provides all of these services, at this level of care, on one site. It provides the highest level of care to the most critically ill and injured from throughout the province.

Heart of gold

Generosity has the power to create a ripple effect that can last for generations. As evidence, look no further than a thoughtful philanthropic gift made decades ago that set the course for the growth of cardiac care at Royal Columbian Hospital. Over the past 50 years, heart services at the hospital have expanded to the point that Royal Columbian is now the busiest cardiac centre in BC, and it has become the busiest in Canada for a key, life-saving heart attack treatment.

Royal Columbian’s first heart catheterization took place more than 50 years ago, something that was made possible in 1969 following a $100,000 donation from the P.A. Woodward Foundation.

At the time, it was the largest private donation ever made to the hospital, and it triggered a successful fundraising campaign to match the contribution.

The equipment that was purchased allowed for cardiac imaging to be done for the first time at Royal Columbian. The first heart catheterization was performed in November 1969.

Today, the New Westminster-based hospital provides emergency cardiac care for a third of British Columbians who live, work, or play within the boundaries of the large Fraser Health Authority. In addition to the most open-heart surgeries in the province, Royal Columbian performs more angioplasties than any other hospital in the country to restore blood flow to people who have suffered heart attacks because of clogged arteries.

Cardiac services are again set for tremendous growth and advancement as Royal Columbian undergoes phase 2 of its unprecedented $1.49 billion redevelopment. A new Acute Care Tower, set to be complete in 2025, will include increased care for heart disease and capacity to treat more patients.

This transformation is one example of how you can help by purchasing your tickets. Get your tickets today. Support our healthcare heroes and help to provide care to those in need.
