The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation (PRHF) is excited to announce the winner of Week #23 of their Catch the Ace progressive jackpot raffle, presented by OK Tire Pembroke. Kellie Dupre of Pembroke won the weekly prize of $8,985 after her ticket revealed the 6 of Hearts!
Roger Martin, Executive Director of PRHF, shared that the Week #24 draw has officially launched with an estimated jackpot of over $200,000, if the Ace of Spades is caught.
Over the past 23 weeks, the raffle has raised over $294,000, funding 10 new hospital beds valued at $117,170. Now, funds are being collected for a new $200,000 Ultrasound machine for the Diagnostic Imaging department.
Tickets are available online at www.PRHcatchtheace.ca and at local locations including Holiday Inn Express, Cork Culture, NRTC Communications (Petawawa), Bumpy Roads Studio (Pembroke), and Making Seasons Bright.
