Our Grand Prize Winner is Floating Away with Over 24K!

On June 29 at noon, ticket number A-1575977 was drawn as the GRAND PRIZE WINNER in St. Joe’s June Jackpot 50/50 Lottery. Michelle H. of Caledonia, Ont., is the lucky winner who will be floating away with $24,125!

St. Joe's June Jackpot lottery winner, Michelle H., is photographed outdoors next to a large tree. She smiles while holding up her winning cheque.
Michelle says she plays St. Joe’s community lottery to give back to the Hospital for the care she, and her loved ones, have received. She also works with people experiencing mental health concerns and appreciates that funds raised through the lottery supports St. Joe’s – the leading provider of mental health care in the region.

“I play to support healthcare in general, but I never thought I’d actually win the lottery!” an ecstatic Michelle says. “I’ll probably use the winnings for home renovations, and maybe book a trip somewhere special, because it’s been a couple of years since we’ve had the opportunity to travel.”

Not only is Michelle a winner, but our community is, too. That’s because the remaining proceeds from the lottery jackpot ($24,125) will be used to fund upgrades to patient care facilities, vital research and much-needed medical equipment at our Hospital.

We are so grateful to everyone who chose to take part in our June Jackpot 50/50 lottery to ensure a healthier future for our community. From all of us at St. Joe’s Foundation, we wish you a happy, healthy, summer!
