ARCH Hospice is pleased to announce that Lily Kangas has won the 50/50 Draw for August with ticket number B-6015250. Lily Kangas and Chuck Shannon were so excited when they received the call on Aug. 31.

Lily expressed, “We are so thankful, it was a wonderful surprise!” The couple purchases tickets every single month! This month, Lily purchased the day before the draw after coming across an advertisement. ARCH is so grateful for the ongoing support from our incredible community.

Lily is an artist/teacher and Chuck is a Senior Database Administrator. The two plan to put their winnings towards retirement, paying bills, and saving up for the future! “We love the compassionate care ARCH provides and we enjoy supporting the community,” shared Lily.

Congratulations, Lily! We wish you and Chuck all the best with your future plans.

“There is no greater feeling than supporting the care services ARCH provides while also giving back to the community members who graciously help us. This fundraiser truly is a win-win. Thank you to everyone who contributes each month – it means more than you know," shared Miranda Leonard, Marketing & Events Associate at ARCH.

We have added an early bird draw that takes place on the second Wednesday of each month as a thank you for all of the outstanding community support. Purchasing your tickets in advance will give you a chance at both the $1,000 Early Bird Prize and the end-of-month Grand Prize.

Tickets for the September ARCH 50/50 are on sale now at www.ARCH5050.ca. The winner’s jackpot has a guaranteed minimum of $9,999 and early bird ticket-holders will have a chance at winning an additional $1,000 (if purchased prior to the second Wednesday of each month).

Proceeds raised from the 50/50 go directly towards the care and support of hundreds of residents, community clients, and their families served by ARCH each year. The deadline to purchase tickets for September’s Grand Prize Draw is Sept. 30 at 9:30 a.m. - this month’s winner could be YOU!
