Purchase your 50/50 tickets and help kids like Elara!

Elara lives with complex care needs, after being born with a rare congenital heart defect. Her chronic health conditions have led to numerous stays at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital and as a result, Elara was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

“PTSD is a challenge in kids because, to be frank, Elara only knows this life that she has,” said Elara’s mom, Tara. “Elara doesn’t talk about the things that she has been through, she endures them. Despite all that, she loves going to the hospital, and we have always taken solace in that because it’s a testament to the care she gets there. But, we’ve learned that it is also related to PTSD, because she feels the safest at the hospital. It’s where she gets rescued.” Learn more about Elara’s story.

Buy your tickets today to help moms like Jana!

At one point Jana’s journey to first becoming a mom felt almost impossible.

For two years, Jana and her husband Cleve endured heartbreaking experiences, including a miscarriage and an ectopic pregnancy, before finally becoming pregnant with their first child. Based on her history, Jana was carefully monitored to ensure a smooth pregnancy and a healthy baby, and in April of 2018, baby Claire entered the world.

Last spring, Jana and Cleve welcomed their second child Sullivan at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital. The hospital is home to one of Canada’s largest Single Room Maternal Care Centres, an innovative new model of care where moms-to-be labour, give birth and stay with their new baby in the same private room. Today, the family of four is happy and healthy, as Sullivan recently celebrated his first birthday.

Buy your tickets today to help purchase specialized equipment, saving kids just like Torrie!

When Torrie was only nine, her life changed forever after receiving a shocking diagnosis of a rare blood disease. It started in 2016 when she was admitted to hospital in Regina with a low platelet count. Soon after she had no platelet count at all and was airlifted to Saskatoon’s Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.

The perfect treatment for Torrie’s rare, serious blood disease was a special piece of equipment, which was thankfully purchased just six months before her diagnosis with funding from Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation.

Torrie’s story then took another shocking turn last year when she was also diagnosed with lupus, a chronic, autoimmune disease. Now 14, Torrie often needs to visit Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital for specialized care to continue to keep her health in check.

The draw will be June 16 at 4 p.m. at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation 1 – 345 Third Avenue S. Saskatoon, Sask.

Buy your tickets today for a chance to win half of the jackpot and support mental health research that helps families here at home.

A research team at the University of Saskatchewan is aiming to develop a new smartphone app to help support the caregivers of children and adolescents with mental health and addiction disorders. The research project, supported by Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation, is aiming to create an accessible and innovative app, in which caregivers can find reliable information, improve social support, connectedness and enhance well-being.

While caregivers are the backbone of the health care system by providing unpaid care, they often receive very little support and bear an increasing amount of distress. Caregivers often report experiencing a higher level of depressive and anxiety symptoms, adverse physical health, and decreased quality of life. Dr. Hua Li (RN, PhD) and Dr. Lorraine Holtslander (RN, PhD) are leading the two-year pilot project to develop the app, which they believe has great potential to impact the health of Saskatchewan residents.

The draw will be June 16 at 4 p.m. at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation 1 – 345 Third Avenue S. Saskatoon, Sask. The winner will be notified by email or phone with instructions on claiming the prize. 1,000,000 tickets available to a maximum jackpot of $3,625,000. For phone inquiries, call 1-888-808-5437.

Purchase your tickets now for a chance to win half of the jackpot and help kids who spend time in hospital, just like Morgan.

In January, Morgan from Prince Albert stopped to help a stranger who was stuck in the ditch and was then hit by a passing vehicle. The 17-year-old was then airlifted to Saskatoon to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital, the only one of its kind in Saskatchewan.

Morgan’s injuries were extensive, including six broken ribs, a shattered shoulder with multiple fractures, damage to his pancreas, a laceration to his kidney, his spleen had to be removed, and he required dozens of stitches to his head.

After two weeks of care in the PICU, Morgan was able to return home to continue his recovery journey. The mobility of his arm and shoulder has been greatly restricted but he’s regained some movement while currently undergoing physiotherapy.

The draw will be June 16 at 4 p.m. at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation 1 – 345 Third Avenue S. Saskatoon, Sask. The winner will be notified by email or phone with instructions on claiming the prize.

Purchase your tickets now for a chance to win half of the jackpot and help kids like Harper.

When Harper and her twin brother, Knox, were born, Harper needed to be transported from Prince Albert to Saskatoon’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit by the Neonatal Transport Team. Harper required immediate CPR after delivery because she was not breathing, and her tiny body was placed on a cooling mat to help reduce the risk of brain damage.

The fragile moments during Harper’s emergency transport are exactly what the Neonatal Transport Team prepares for to make all the difference in a baby’s outcome. Thankfully, Harper was able to rise above her challenges in Saskatoon’s NICU once the transport was complete and the family arrived home in Prince Albert one week later. Today the twins are happy, healthy and energetic two-year-olds.

The draw will be June 16 at 4 p.m. at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation 1 – 345 Third Avenue S. Saskatoon, Sask. The winner will be notified by email or phone with instructions on claiming the prize.
