According to BC Stats, today in BC there are 22,000 children on the autism spectrum, and the autism rate has increased from 1 in 37 children in 2019 to 1 in 32 this year. Along with these rising diagnostic rates, at AutismBC we have seen an increase in requests for services and supports.

“Last year we experienced a 109% increase of in-depth calls that lasted over 20 minutes with our support staff from people who were struggling to find the right kind of support, says AutismBC Program Manager Brock Sheppard. “People needed someone to listen to, to answer their questions, to provide information, and to know they are not alone. Funding we receive from our raffle and from donors allows us to be there to answer these calls, and meaningfully connect people to community level supports and the right information.” The funds raised in the 2022 AutismBC Raffle and 50/50 presented by Applewood Auto Group are crucial to the provincial charity.

The Grand Prize is a 2022 Ford Maverick XLT Truck valued at $34,645 courtesy of presenting sponsor Applewood Auto Group.

Your Impact at Royal Columbian Hospital:

When you play, our patients win. Like David Asencio, who received above and beyond care during his stay at Royal Columbian:

Seemingly out of nowhere, David had trouble breathing. No chest pains, but his daughter Angie could see the 76-year-old’s face was turning purple. After a 9-1-1 call, paramedics took David to Royal Columbian Hospital, where a large blood clot was found to be dangerously lodged in his lungs.

Fortunately, David did not have any serious problems with blood pressure or oxygenation. That allowed the medical team to bypass some of the more urgent treatments in favour of blood thinners to help stabilize the clot until the body can get rid of it naturally.

David was placed in Royal Columbian’s High Acuity Unit, which is meant for patients who need closer observation than a general unit but don’t require the full resources of the Intensive Care Unit.

“English is not his first language, and he has difficulty hearing,” notes his daughter. “But [Royal Columbian’s team] was very thorough in taking care of him, and somehow the staff would send someone who understood more of his language. That really made him very comfortable.”

After a few days, David was discharged from Royal Columbian but in need of follow up care to further understand the cause of the large clot. Being new to the country with no family physician, the family is grateful to Dr. Chu for seeing David through the next few months of his treatment.

Your participation in the lottery helps us support the highest level of care for patients like David.
