NEWS RELEASE
ROYAL VICTORIA REGIONAL HEALTH CENTRE
*************************
In the moments that matter most, the RVH Auxiliary is proud to support patient care at Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre (RVH), and are launching a new community lottery to help meet their latest pledge of $5 million.
The RVH Auxiliary 50/50 Community Draw will launch on Nov. 2, 2020.
“Our Auxiliary is currently directing its fundraising proceeds to help the tiniest patients in RVH’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), as the current space requires significant expansion,” says Lise McCourt, president of RVH’s Auxiliary.
While the Auxiliary has had to cancel its in-person fundraising events this year, the Blue Brigade — as RVH’s Auxiliary is affectionately known — is excited to bring this new initiative to the community. The 50/50 Community Draw will support the Auxiliary’s $5-million pledge announced in May to the RVH Moments Matter Campaign.
“The more tickets you purchase, the more chances you have to win – at both the lottery and helping us to ensure the Auxiliary can continue in its unwavering mission to support RVH in delivering exceptional care now, and into the future,” says McCourt.
Tickets will go on sale on Monday, Nov. 2, 2020 with early bird draws taking place Nov. 10 and Nov. 24. Early bird draws have a prize value of $1,000 each. The 50/50 draw will take place on Dec. 3 at 1 p.m., with a minimum prize value of $9,999.
Tickets can be purchased at RVHAuxiliary5050.com. For more information please contact [email protected].
