Two Worthy Causes, One Mega Jackpot!

VANCOUVER, BC, April 21, 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 contribute to one mega jackpot. 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.

Actual odds depend on the number of tickets sold.
