Support Critical Care at Royal Columbian Hospital

NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, June 19, 2026 — June 19, 2026 — Excitement is building in the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation 50/50 Lottery!

The Grand Prize Draw is on June 25, and one lucky winner will walk away with half the pot. With every ticket sold, the prize climbs higher, reaching life-changing territory.

Just picture it: previous jackpots have reached close to $200K, with half going to the lucky winner. What would a win like that mean for you summer?

Why your ticket matters: This isn’t just a lottery—it’s about people like Lauren Phillips and her son Wesley. When fetal monitoring revealed subtle dips in Lauren’s baby’s heart rate at 25 weeks, caregivers acted quickly. Wesley was delivered at just 720 grams and rushed to the NICU, where the hospital’s specialized neonatal team provided immediate breathing support and lifesaving care available at only a small number of centres in the province.

Six days later, despite Wesley being intubated and on a jet ventilator, the team helped Lauren hold her son for the first time. Supported by equipment funded through Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation, even the smallest and sickest infants can now experience early skin-to-skin moments that strengthen bonding and support development.

Your ticket helps fund the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower, which will introduce 24 private single-family rooms, bringing greater privacy, light, and comfort to families during their hardest days.

Every play matters. Every ticket makes a difference.

NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, June 16, 2026 — Time is ticking down to the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation’s 50/50 Lottery Jackpot draw. On June 25, someone is going to take half the prize – could it be you?

The new Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower is now open, and the upper floors reflect a vision of healthcare built not only for today’s patients but for generations to come. Levels 7 through 10 bring together dedicated inpatient units that support healing, teaching, and the delivery of highly specialized care for patients across British Columbia.

  • Level 7 will be home to Internal Medicine and the Clinical Teaching Unit, where teams care for patients with complex medical needs while training the next generation of physicians.
  • On Level 8, Vascular Surgery and Medicine will come together in a modern environment designed to support recovery.
  • Level 9 will house Royal Columbian’s Neurosciences Unit, caring for patients experiencing stroke, brain and spine injuries, and other neurological conditions.
  • And on Level 10, the Trauma and Orthopedics Units will support individuals recovering from serious injuries, fractures, and orthopedic surgeries.

Across all four floors, private rooms, improved infection control, enhanced monitoring, and quieter, more welcoming environments create space for rest, dignity, and family support.

Help Make Care at RCH Even Better  

When you play, you’re not just chasing cash. You’re also standing behind Royal Columbian’s doctors, nurses, and patients as we prepare to transform care for generations with the opening in 2026 of the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower.
