The Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation is excited to announce Holly Patterson as the Week 34 winner of their Catch the Ace progressive jackpot raffle, proudly presented by OK Tire Pembroke. Holly won a weekly prize of $19,267 after her ticket revealed the 8 of Clubs. Her winning ticket was purchased online and selected through the raffle’s official random draw system.
Roger Martin, Executive Director of the PRHF, confirmed that the Week 35 draw is now underway, with an estimated jackpot of over $472,000 if the Ace of Spades is caught. He expressed his gratitude to OK Tire Pembroke for their support, which helps ensure more of the raffle proceeds go directly to the hospital’s equipment needs.
So far, the Catch the Ace raffle has raised more than $694,000 in just 34 weeks. These funds have already helped the hospital purchase 10 new beds and two ultrasound machines. The Foundation’s current goal is to raise $500,000 for the purchase of a new CT scanner.
Tickets for the Catch the Ace raffle are available online at www.PRHcatchtheace.ca and at several cash sale locations, including the Holiday Inn Express, Cork Culture, NRTC Communications in Petawawa, Bumpy Roads Studio in downtown Pembroke, and Making Seasons Bright. The raffle offers a guaranteed weekly winner and a growing jackpot for the person who finds the Ace of Spades.
Ticket prices start at 3 for $5, with options for 10 for $10, 50 for $20, and 250 for $40. Half of all ticket sales go toward the hospital’s most urgent equipment needs.
