The ace has been caught. Wayne Shave of Carleton Place is the big winner of the Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation Catch the Ace Lottery. Shave takes home a cool $61,921. Wayne says he played most weeks and never thought he would win. He and his wife will take a vacation somewhere warm to celebrate. PRH Foundation, Executive Director, Roger Martin says in just 20 weeks, the lottery has raised an incredible $97,863 for the Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation’s Cancer Care Campaign.
The PRH Foundation is happy to announce that they will be hosting another Catch the Ace lottery very soon! Leigh Costello, Community Fundraising Specialist, adds, “We are so thrilled with the success of our past Catch the Ace lotteries and how the community rallied around to support this event and cause. We couldn’t have done it without all of our volunteers and community supporters who helped us spread the word and sell tickets each week. We are so excited to see local residents get behind our next draw.”
Donations towards the Cancer Care Campaign are welcome at any time and can be made by contacting the Foundation Office at (613) 732-2811, extension 7408 or by visiting www.prhfoundation.com.
