50/50 6-packs final chance: BC SPCA Lottery for animals in need

 

BC, August 6, 2025 — The BC SPCA’s most popular lottery ticket packages are almost gone! 50/50 6-packs are nearly 90% sold out. Today could be your final chance.

Each ticket makes a difference for vulnerable animals in B.C. and gives you another chance to win the jaw-dropping prize. The 50/50 is already over $900,000 and could reach $1,600,000. 6-packs are almost gone, so don’t wait. This is your last chance to get the most popular ticket bundle and boost your odds of winning while helping even more animals. Choose your tickets here.

Last year the BC SPCA Lottery for animals in need sold out 4 weeks before the September deadline and this year is on track to sell out even sooner!

For just $15 you can enter to win the 50/50 pot up to $1,600,000. Or save even more animals and get more chances to win with a 6-pack for $60 or a 3-pack for $40. But hurry, 6-packs won’t be available for long.

When you play, the animals always win. For tickets and more information visit lottery.spca.bc.ca.

Ticket purchasers must be 19 years of age or older and tickets can only be sold in B.C.

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.

BC Day Just Got Better: The Heart of BC 50/50 Lottery Is Back

KELOWNA, BC, Friday, August 1, 2025 — In advance of the BC Day long weekend, the KGH Foundation is thrilled to announce the return of the Heart of BC 50/50 Lottery, an exciting opportunity to win up to $500,000 while supporting healthier communities across the Southern Interior of British Columbia. 

After the inaugural jackpot reached a remarkable $361,110, the Heart of BC 50/50 Lottery is back and bigger than ever. With the current pot already over $175,000, the stakes are high and the impact even greater. While half of the jackpot goes straight to one lucky winner, the other half funds vital upstream health care initiatives right here in our communities.

 

New to this iteration of the lottery, the KGH Foundation has partnered with health care foundations throughout the Southern Interior, in addition to the existing partnership with the YMCA of Southern Interior BC, to ensure that funds stay in the communities where tickets were purchased. 

Funds from the first lottery are already making a difference. They have helped Sport for Life expand their Physical Activity and Literacy Program in elementary schools across the region, providing both in-person and online training for educators. Programs like these increase the chances that children will stay active for life and enjoy the mental health benefits that come with regular physical activity. 

Proceeds have also funded the YMCA of Southern Interior BC’s Health Promotion programs dedicated to directly enhancing early intervention and prevention services, focusing on the holistic well-being of individuals in mind, body, and spirit for all ages. 

With the deadline to buy tickets coming up on September 5, 2025, there’s never been a better time to help build healthier communities across the heart of beautiful British Columbia. Don’t miss your chance to win big and make a meaningful difference.

Information about KGH Foundation

Since 1978, the KGH Foundation has worked with a generous community to raise funds to support world-class healthcare close to home for a growing and diverse population in the interior of B.C. Today, the KGH Foundation is the lead fundraising organization for Kelowna General Hospital, JoeAnna’s House, and Central Okanagan Hospice House, while also fundraising for vital community health care programs.
