The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation (PRHF) is excited to announce Audrey Waito of Pembroke as the Week 14 winner of the Catch the Ace progressive jackpot raffle. Audrey won $5,036 after her ticket revealed the 6 of Clubs, selected through the online random generator.
PRHF Executive Director, Roger Martin, shared that the Week 15 draw has started with an estimated jackpot of over $90,000 if the Ace is caught.
Thanks to the support of OK Tire Pembroke, the Catch the Ace raffle has raised over $130,000 in just 14 weeks. These funds have helped purchase 10 new hospital beds valued at $117,170 and will soon fund a new Ultrasound machine for the Diagnostic Imaging department at Pembroke Regional Hospital (PRH), valued at $200,000.
Tickets for the Catch the Ace raffle can be purchased online at www.PRHcatchtheace.ca or at local businesses including Holiday Inn Express, Cork Culture, NRTC Communications in Petawawa, Bumpy Roads Studio in downtown Pembroke, and Making Seasons Bright. Ticket prices are 3 for $5, 10 for $10, 50 for $20, and 250 for $40, giving players the chance to win both the weekly prize and the progressive jackpot.
A portion of the ticket sales supports the hospital’s highest-priority equipment needs. For more information or to donate, visit www.prhfoundation.com or contact the Foundation Office at (613) 732-2811, extension 7408.
