VANCOUVER, BC, May 19, 2026 — Do you have your St. Paul’s Foundation 50/50 raffle tickets yet? 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 across BC.
Share the warmth – dignity through kindness
At the St. Paul’s Hospital Overdose Prevention Site (OPS), people come in seeking more than safety – they come for a moment of calm in a space that treats them with dignity. The OPS offers a low barrier, non judgmental place where patients can use substances safely while staying connected to care.
Individuals, often unhoused, living in shelters or on the streets are met by staff and peer workers where they’re at—with a warm greeting, a listening ear, and the kind of trust that can take time to build.
Because of your raffle support, the Share the Warmth Project came to life, offering something extra: hats, socks, gloves, rain ponchos, waterproof footwear and snacks for those who arrive at the site without the basic cold weather essentials.
These small items make a big difference. A dry pair of socks or a snack often becomes a moment of connection—a simple way of saying “you matter.” Those moments help open the door to deeper engagement and trusting relationships, creating a supportive environment for individuals who often face significant barriers to accessing health services.
