Win big with St. Paul’s Foundation’s Spring 50/50 raffle.

VANCOUVER, BC, May 4, 2023 — Try your luck in St. Paul’s Foundation’s Spring 50/50 raffle. 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.

Residents living with dementia are often stigmatized as extremely forgetful and not able to carry out basic functions. Yet, residents with mild to moderate dementia are still able to participate in simple meal prep and cooking tasks with supervision and guidance.

Cooking program affords a sense of pride, motivation and confidence

The Therapeutic Cooking Program at Mount St. Joseph Hospital has brought many benefits to seniors living with dementia. Cooking is a very familiar act that many residents performed daily in the past. Preparing food and actively cooking can be very therapeutic as it stimulates the senses, allowing residents to recall past cooking experiences from their long-term memory.

Thanks to raffle supporters like you, the Therapeutic Cooking Program is able to provide an environment for residents to work and interact together, sharing stories and memories about cooking. This helps to alleviate the feeling of boredom, helplessness, and loneliness that often comes with living away from the family home.

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

Each ticket is so much more than a chance to win. Buy your ticket today

Tickets are available for purchase from May 1 through 31. The winner will be drawn on June 1. Ticket bundles are available, and can increase your chances of winning!

  • 3 for $10
  • 20 for $25
  • 120 for $50 (the very best value and your best chance to win)

Get your tickets on the Spring 50/50 raffle website.

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

 

About St. Paul’s Foundation

St. Paul’s Foundation raises funds to support compassionate, inspired care at Providence Health Care’s 17 sites across BC, including St. Paul’s Hospital. Together, we care for hundreds of thousands of people each year, from newborn babies to seniors in long-term care.

Your support will help save and improve lives. Thank you!

Two Worthy Causes, One Mega Jackpot!

Buy Tickets

VANCOUVER, BC, May 3, 2023

Backpack Buddies and CKNW Kids’ Fund have partnered for a mega 50/50 raffle!

From now until May 4, 2023, you can purchase tickets online to enter and win up to $300,000. A winner will be drawn on May 5, 2023 and will receive half of the total jackpot. The other half will be shared equally between the two charities to support BC kids in need.

By purchasing your lottery tickets, children like Caitlyn and mothers like Allison will be able to continue to receive the support that they need.

Caitlyn is 2 years old with a complex medical history. She presents with a Global Developmental Delay and feeding difficulties, and requires a G-tube for feeding. Caitlyn’s feeding pump, supplies, and formula are not provided by the At-Home Program and are crucial to her livelihood. CKNW Kids’ Fund was able to grant $2,500 to fund Caitlyn’s feeding equipment and supplies.

Allison is a mother in B.C. and has noted that although she works hard, “the bills add up and sometimes [they] don’t quite make it to payday at the end of the month”. With the help of Backpack Buddies, children are provided with balanced meals to ensure they can get through the weekend, and to the end of the month, without going hungry.

Tickets are available for online purchase now until May 4, 2023. 1 ticket costs $5, 20 tickets cost $20, 100 costs $40, and 300 tickets for only $100. Each ticket directly contributes to the jackpot. 50% will go to the winner drawn on May 5 in Burnaby, BC. The other 50% will be equally split between CKNW Kids’ Fund and Backpack Buddies.

About Backpack Buddies

Backpack Buddies provides weekly bags of food for families to feed children over the weekend and beyond. They work with schools and social workers to find kids who would benefit with the goal that no child in the community goes hungry.

About CKNW Kids’ Fund

The CKNW Kids’ Fund provides grants to families for medical equipment, therapies, and programs for at-risk youth. They have supported and enhanced the lives of vulnerable kids with physical, mental, and social challenges in BC for over 77 years.
