Play the St. Paul's Foundation 50/50 raffle and win.

VANCOUVER, BC, May 11, 2025 — Don’t miss out on your chance to buy tickets for St. Paul’s Foundation’s 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 – today, and for years to come.

Breast prostheses: Restoring strength and self-assurance after mastectomy

A mastectomy is more than just a physical change. It’s a deeply personal journey of healing and resilience.

The Providence Breast Centre at Mount Saint Joseph Hospital performs 1,200 breast cancer surgeries each year — more than any other hospital in the province, making up 68% of all breast cancer surgeries in Vancouver.

Your raffle purchase helps fund care items for mastectomy patients. One of the items we’re able to buy are known as ‘fluffies’: they are soft, lightweight, and comfortable breast prostheses that can be a crucial part of the sensitive post-surgery recovery period. They serve as a temporary solution before a patient is fitted for a permanent prosthesis or undergoes reconstructive surgery.

Designed to be gentle on healing skin, fluffies provide immediate support and comfort, allow clothing to fit naturally, and help patients adapt to the changes in their body post-mastectomy. By encouraging self-confidence, they also promote physical activity and social connections, empowering patients to embrace life.

With your raffle support, mastectomy patients can reclaim comfort, confidence, and the freedom to feel at home in their bodies.

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

Tickets are available for purchase until May 30, 2025. The winner will be drawn on June 3, 2025. Ticket bundles are available to increase your chances of winning!

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

You could be the lucky winner! Get your tickets today at spf5050.ca.

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

About the Cause

St. Paul’s Foundation raises funds to support compassionate, inspired care at Providence Health Care’s 18 sites across BC, including St. Paul’s Hospital, and at Providence Living’s long-term care homes. Together, we care for tens of thousands of people each year, from newborn babies to seniors in long-term care. Learn more.

The new St. Paul’s Hospital, part of the Jim Pattison Medical Campus, in Vancouver’s False Creek Flats, will feature state-of-the art facilities integrating clinical care with research. It will be one of the most digitally advanced hospitals in Canada, supported by an innovation ecosystem that will help close gaps in care, offer hope to patients in need, and realize a healthier BC.

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