Jackpot over $150,000 - St. Paul's Foundation 50/50

VANCOUVER, BC, May 27, 2026 — The jackpot is growing, get your St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle tickets now. One lucky winner will take home half the jackpot, while the other half will go directly toward supporting patients, long-term care residents, and their families with compassionate, comforting care across BC.

A new way to play: Obie inspires engagement and connection

At Mount Saint Joseph Hospital Long-Term Care (MSJ LTC), Obie, a sensory interactive gaming projector, lights up the table and floor with colour and sound. Residents are drawn in as they reach, point, and sweep away glowing images, enjoying games designed to spark movement and fun.

With 60 games offering varying difficulty levels, Obie makes it easy for residents with different abilities, including those with moderate to severe dementia, to participate comfortably. The combination of music, lights, and motion creates an inviting environment that naturally encourages interaction, whether playing individually or with up to six residents at a time.

Staff have noticed positive results, including improved engagement, increased social interaction, and sharper cognitive engagement among the residents. “It has been a great addition to our home” notes Andrea, a Rehabilitation Assistant at MSJ LTC. “Residents enjoy the interactive games, and some are excited to show their grandchildren when they come visit.”

Your raffle purchase helps bring innovative and interactive forms of play, like Obie, to MSJ LTC and other long-term care homes across Providence.

Obie isn’t just a projector; it’s a bridge between play, connection, and everyday happiness! Buy your tickets now!

Tickets are available for purchase until June 5, 2026. The winner will be drawn on June 9, 2026. Ticket bundles are available to increase your chances of winning!

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

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

Your Chance to Win Big—St. Paul's Foundation 50/50 Raffle

VANCOUVER, BC, May 21, 2026 — Do you have your St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle tickets yet? One lucky winner will take home half the jackpot, while the other half will go directly toward supporting patients, long-term care residents, and their families with compassionate, comforting care across BC.

Share the warmth – dignity through kindness

At the St. Paul’s Hospital Overdose Prevention Site (OPS), people come in seeking more than safety – they come for a moment of calm in a space that treats them with dignity. The OPS offers a low barrier, non judgmental place where patients can use substances safely while staying connected to care.

Individuals, often unhoused, living in shelters or on the streets are met by staff and peer workers where they’re at—with a warm greeting, a listening ear, and the kind of trust that can take time to build.

Because of your raffle support, the Share the Warmth Project came to life, offering something extra: hats, socks, gloves, rain ponchos, waterproof footwear and snacks for those who arrive at the site without the basic cold weather essentials.

These small items make a big difference. A dry pair of socks or a snack often becomes a moment of connection—a simple way of saying “you matter.” Those moments help open the door to deeper engagement and trusting relationships, creating a supportive environment for individuals who often face significant barriers to accessing health services.

More tickets = more compassion + more chances to win!

Tickets are available for purchase until June 5, 2026. The winner will be drawn on June 9, 2026. Ticket bundles are available to increase your chances of winning!

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

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