Battlefords Union Hospital (BUH) Foundation’s Monthly Lottery Early Bird Draw was held in the main lobby of BUH Friday, April 11th. With the assistance of the Commissionaire, Earl, and Lottery auditor, Suzanne Odishaw of Baert Cameron Odishaw La Cock, Chartered Accountants, Elmer Seib of Maymont, ticket #260, was drawn as the winner for the $1000 prize.
When Elmer received the call this morning to inform him that he had just won in BUH Foundation’s Monthly Lottery he was happy but stated: “I wasn’t expecting to win, it was more important to me to make a donation.” BUH Foundation has wonderful, loyal supporters and ticket buyers and we wish Elmer, and everyone who has purchased their tickets, the best of luck in the remaining draws.
The regular 13 monthly draws will begin Friday, April 25th, 2014. Proceeds from the 2014 / 2015 Monthly Lottery have been allocated towards the purchase of a new $550,000 digital fluoroscopy unit that is urgently needed for the Medical Imaging Department at BUH. This unit obtains real time imaging of a patient, allowing the Radiologist to observe organs and functional imaging of the body. This helps to provide an accurate diagnosis and possible life saving interventions for you, your family and your loved ones.
Big ‘Thank You’ to everyone for their continued support of “Enriching Healthcare, Embracing Community Wellness and Supporting their Foundation.”
