Tickets on Sale Now for our Holiday Wishes 50/50 Lottery!

Get in the holiday spirit with our biggest lottery of the year! Not only are there more chances to win than ever before, but our Holiday Wishes Lottery starts with a minimum jackpot of $15,000! More than $350,000 in cash prizes have been awarded to date, so don’t miss out on your chance to win big while helping our Hospital, too!

Our first $1,000 early bird draw will take place next week, so be sure to purchase your tickets now for the most chances to win! 

Half of all ticket sales for our 50/50 draw will make up the jackpot while the other half will fund robotic surgery innovation at our Hospital. Robotic technology, in the hands of our skilled orthopaedic and cancer surgeons, is helping patients to go home within days of their procedure with less pain, smaller scars, a speedier recovery plan and greater mobility, too.
