So Many Reasons To Buy 💚 💙


VANCOUVER, BC, Friday, January 27, 2023 — When you get your Choices Lottery tickets, you’re not only getting in to win millions in prizes. You’re also supporting BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, and helping the hospital find crucial answers for kids and their families.

BC Children’s Hospital is the only hospital of its kind in the province, tackling the most complex physical and mental health challenges facing children and youth today. Every step brings research teams closer to life-changing breakthroughs from the lab straight to kids’ bedsides – in BC and beyond.

“At BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, we know that small is mighty,” says Malcolm Berry, President and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. “The sick and injured children who visit BC Children’s show us this every day. We also know that every research study, small or big, could have a huge impact on children and families across the province.

138,000 children visit the hospital for specialized pediatric services each year, and BC Children’s is the only hospital in the province solely dedicated to the care of children and youth, addressing both physical and mental health.

“This is why we count on the funds raised from every Choices Lottery ticket sold,” says Berry.

You might think your impact is small, but your support could be just what BC Children’s Hospital’s researchers need to push the next medical advancement over the finish line.

It’s a win-win: help fuel new medical breakthroughs and get in to win amazing prizes, including multi-million dollar home packages – or $2,300,000 cash.

There are over 3,000 total prizes up for grabs in this year’s lottery (worth over $3.4 million) and – new this year – each Grand Prize home package comes with gas & groceries for a year (with $25,000 in gift cards to Esso and Save-On-Foods).

Like Dave Castle, who received life-saving care from Royal Columbian’s 24/7 acute stroke team.

The 73-year-old was at work at his barbershop when he began to feel wobbly. He was rushed to Royal Columbian, where the acute stroke team performed an emergency thrombectomy to remove the clot in his brain.

A few weeks later, Dave received follow-up treatment to place a metal stent that would prevent the artery from closing again and causing another stroke. Royal Columbian is one of only a small number of hospitals in the province with the capability to perform these procedures. 

Donors to the Foundation have since added to the technology by funding some artificial intelligence software that assists the medical team in the patient’s initial diagnosis.

Just weeks after his stroke, Dave was back at work in his barbershop and said he feels great.

Support innovative new technologies and exceptional patient care at Royal Columbian and enter for a chance to win big.
