Your Support Could Be the Key to the Next Big Breakthrough

Help fuel new medical breakthroughs for kids and families in BC.

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 1,500 research community members 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.

You can make kids mighty.

FINAL DAY: St. Paul’s Foundation jackpot over $210,000!

VANCOUVER, BC, February 28, 2025 — This is your last chance to get your St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle tickets. Draw closes tonight at 10:00 PM PST.

The jackpot is now over $210,000 – and half could be yours!

The Heart Centre at St. Paul’s Hospital treats the most complex cardiac patients from around BC and the Yukon. Many patients arrive via air ambulance, and are unable to bring their walking/mobility aids due to flight space restrictions.

Patients travel safely home and give back to their local communities with the Pay It Forward Walker Program

If patients don’t have family members that can come to Vancouver and bring their mobility aid, the usual solution is for patients to rent a device from the Red Cross. But if they are ready for discharge after the Red Cross closes on a Friday, then the patient is essentially ‘stranded’ in Vancouver over the weekend – and occupying an acute care bed.

Enter the ‘Pay it Forward’ walker program.

The Heart Centre gives patients a walker upon discharge, and the patient then ‘pays it forward’ by donating that walker to the Red Cross when they return to their home community.

Your raffle purchase will help patients travel safely home, regain a sense of independence, and contribute back to their local community.

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

Help patients travel safely home! Buy your tickets today.

Tickets are available for purchase until 10:00PM TONIGHT. The winner will be drawn on March 4, 2025. Ticket bundles are available to increase your chances of winning!

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

You could be the lucky winner! Get your tickets now on the St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle website.

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