Thunder Bay – LIVING – Who’ll be taking home this month’s Thunder Bay 50/50 jackpot? It could be you.
June’s take-home jackpot has passed $430,000 cash, and will continue to rise until ticket sales end tonight at 11:59 p.m. Over $2.5 Million has been won since the 50/50 launched in January, through many Early Birds and 4 Grand Prize draws.
Today is the final day to purchase tickets at www.thunderbay5050.ca, with sales closing at 11:59 p.m. ET sharp.
Each Thunder Bay 50/50 ticket helps fund the highest priority equipment needs at the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre. Along with the three specialized ICU beds, a BiPAP ventilator, and a defibrillator announced in past months, recently a new dental x-ray machine for the Operating Room was also funded thanks to supporters of the raffle. The higher the jackpot rises, the more equipment can be funded to bring better healthcare to the people of Thunder Bay and Northwestern Ontario.
When asked why they support the Thunder Bay 50/50, ticket purchasers shared the many reasons they take part:
