Buy Tickets and Support Patients Like Russ

NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, December 23, 2025 — This year, you can support Royal Columbian Hospital by purchasing a ticket for the 50/50 Lottery, and you may just win the jackpot!

With every ticket purchase, you’re making stories like Russ Moore’s possible. A few fleeting bouts of breathlessness turned into an emergency for Russ. After collapsing at his mother’s home, tests revealed a massive pulmonary embolism. Russ was transferred to Royal Columbian, where our Interventional Radiology team removed the clot from his lungs. Caregivers then initiated advanced life support when Russ suffered a cardiac arrest.

To stabilize him, the team placed Russ on ECMO, a highly specialized system that temporarily takes over the work of the heart and lungs. This level of care is available at only a small number of hospitals in British Columbia, and Royal Columbian is one of the few equipped to provide it when patients need the highest level of critical support.

Buy Today to Cement Your Chance!

Funds for specialized equipment like an ECMO system is just one way that the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation helps make RCH a provincial leader in critical care. Your participation makes this work possible! 

Imagine starting 2026 with thousands in winnings — while also helping Royal Columbian build the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower, a facility that will nearly double capacity and expand care for patients across BC.
