Jackpot is over $86,000 - and there's still one more day!

NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, September 23, 2026 — The grand prize draw for Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation’s 50/50 lottery happens tomorrow at 10am! And the jackpot is already sitting at $86,500!

Your ticket purchase helps provide much needed funding to ensure the hospital has the latest technology, the best equipment, and an environment where doctors, nurses and support staff can do their best work. On Thursday, Sept. 24th, the grand prize jackpot will be awarded to one lucky winner — a life-changing prize that’s still climbing higher with every ticket sold.

Royal Columbian Hospital plays a unique provincial role as the busiest cardiac centre in British Columbia and a destination for the most complex medical and surgical patients. 1 in 3 British Columbians receive specialized care at RCH.

Your support helps ensure the highest level of care remains available for those who need it most. Buy your 50/50 tickets now.

We look after some of the most seriously ill and injured patients, and we do it with the support of donors like you.

Only Two Days Left to Buy

NEW WESTMINSTER, BC, September 22, 2026 — Excitement is building in the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation 50/50 Lottery!

The Grand Prize Draw is on Sept. 24th, and one lucky winner will walk away with half the pot. With every ticket sold, the prize climbs higher, reaching life-changing territory.

Just picture it: previous jackpots have reached close to $200K, with half going to the lucky winner. What would a win like that mean for your summer?

Why your ticket matters: This isn’t just a lottery — it’s about people like Lauren Phillips and her son Wesley. When fetal monitoring revealed subtle dips in Lauren’s baby’s heart rate at 25 weeks, caregivers acted quickly. Wesley was delivered at just 720 grams and rushed to the NICU, where the hospital’s specialized neonatal team provided immediate breathing support and lifesaving care available at only a small number of centres in the province.

Six days later, despite Wesley being intubated and on a jet ventilator, the team helped Lauren hold her son for the first time. Supported by equipment funded through Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation, even the smallest and sickest infants can now experience early skin-to-skin moments that strengthen bonding and support development.

Your ticket helps fund the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower, which has introduced 24 private single-family rooms, bringing greater privacy, light, and comfort to families during their hardest days.

Every play matters. Every ticket makes a difference.

Help Make Kids Mighty!

Your support could be the key to the next big breakthrough – for kids like Lilah.

At just 16 months old, Lilah was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Lilah immediately began chemotherapy and initially responded well. But just as her family was preparing to take her home, Lilah developed a severe E. coli blood infection.

Their hospital stay stretched into six difficult weeks that required expertise from multiple departments.

“She couldn’t talk, eat, or walk. She was curled up, sedated most of the time,” recalled Holly, Lilah’s mom. “It was scary. She wasn’t herself.”

Throughout it all, the care team at BC Children’s became a lifeline.
