BUH FOUNDATION 20th ANNUAL $100,000 LOTTERY STARTS MONDAY, AUGUST 25, 2014

 

 

BUH Foundation $100,000 Cash Lottery is 20 years old and remains the most successful revenue generating fundraising event of the Foundation.  Proceeds from the 2014 Lottery will provide funding to purchase medical equipment for the Operating Room, 3rd Floor, including Palliative Care, and the Surgical Floor.  This equipment includes a MedDispense unit that dispenses medications to the nurse efficiently, safely and effectively prevents medications errors; a specialized air transfer system that safely transports patients from stretcher to the OR table or bed; a Lift Bath trolley that allows for the safe and comfortable transport of a bedridden patient to the bath tub.

 

“Your ticket purchases have a significant impact in this community.  The funds raised stay in The Battlefords to help people in The Battlefords and surrounding communities.  We thank you for this support and are very grateful for the commitment The Battlefords businesses and individuals have to local healthcare”, noted Brenda Sparrow, BUH Foundation’s Board of Directors Chair.

 

Tickets will remain the same as in previous years at $40.00 each or three for $100.00, with only 12,000 available.  They can be purchased at BUH Foundation’s Office, BUH Foundation’s Gratefully Yours Food & Gift Shop, and in the main lobby of BUH.  Tickets can also be purchased by calling 306 446 6652 or toll-free 1 888 946 4284 (1 888 WIN 4BUH), or online at www.buhfoundation.com.. 

 

The 50/50 Enhancements are available at one for $10.00 or three for $25.00 and can only be purchased in conjunction with the $100,000 Cash Lottery ticket(s).  The guaranteed minimum payout for the $100,000 Cash Lottery 50/50 Enhancement is $20,000.  All winners names will be published in the Battlefords News-Optimist, announced on CJNB/Q98/The Rock and CJNS radio stations, as well as posted on BUH Foundation’s website www.buhfoundation.com.
