This is a summary. The full Rules of Play govern the raffle and are published in full on this site.
This raffle is a way to support the hospital and to enjoy a monthly draw. It is not a way to make money, and it should never be treated as income.
Ticket packs are $10 = 10 numbers, $20 = 60 numbers, $40 = 200 numbers and $75 = 750 numbers. For the 31 December 2026 draw and the 29 May 2027 draw the packs are $10 = 10 numbers, $20 = 90 numbers, $40 = 200 numbers and $75 = 1,000 numbers.
No. Numbers are generated automatically by the Raffle Nexus system in ascending order from a pre-set starting number, so they cannot be chosen or changed.
Your chances depend on how many numbers you hold compared with the total number of tickets sold for that draw. Sales continue until the deadline, so the final figure is known only when sales close.
Yes, if you are physically in Ontario at the moment of purchase and location services are switched on. Using a VPN or a proxy is prohibited, and a ticket bought outside the permitted jurisdiction is void.
Winners are contacted using the email address and phone number given at the time of purchase. If contact cannot be made after two attempts, a letter is sent by email. Names and winning ticket numbers are published once the winner’s identity and purchase have been verified.
Every prize is paid by cheque in Canadian dollars. You can arrange to collect it at the Foundation office or have it sent by registered mail to a verified address. An electronic funds transfer is arranged only in exceptional cases where mail cannot be delivered.
Government-issued photo identification that matches the details held in the vendor system. A health card is not accepted. A prize is held until photo identification is provided.
Unclaimed prizes are held in a safety deposit box for six months from the date of the draw. After six months the money is transferred to the Kenora and Lake of the Woods Regional Community Foundation with AGCO approval.
All ticket sales are final. Refund requests are sent to support@lwdhospitalfoundation.ca, are reviewed one by one, and can be granted where the request is justified and reaches us before the draw takes place.
Staff of the Foundation and volunteer members of its board of directors, together with their spouses, children and children-in-law, are not eligible to enter.
They are extra draws held during the month, before the Grand Prize draw. Tickets bought before 23:59 CST on the day preceding an Early Bird or Bonus draw stay entered in every later Early Bird and Bonus draw that month and in that month’s Grand Prize draw.
Membership is an optional monthly subscription started with an opt-in checkbox at the Raffle Nexus checkout. The payment method you stored is charged the amount you chose for every subsequent draw until you cancel.
