You could be a Multi-Millionaire

VANCOUVER, BC (January 19, 2023) – BC Children’s Hospital Foundation announced today that the tickets for the 2023 Choices Lottery are now on sale until Thursday, April 13, 2023, or until tickets sell out. The Choices Lottery supports world-leading research initiatives that lead to innovative discoveries and treatments, which in turn directly help experts at BC Children’s Hospital advance their quest to conquer childhood illnesses. More than 1,200 researchers at BC Children’s Hospital work to push the boundaries of what’s possible in pediatric health. Lottery funds help accelerate the pace of turning discoveries into life-saving treatments – ultimately helping more kids get back to being kids.

“At BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, we know that small is mighty. The sick and injured children who visit BC Children’s show us this every day. We also know that every research study, small or big, could have a huge impact on children and families across the province. This is why we count on the funds raised from every Choices Lottery ticket sold. A single ticket purchase may seem small, but together, the money raised could contribute to the next groundbreaking discovery,” said Malcolm Berry, President and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. “138,000 children visit BC Children’s Hospital for specialized pediatric services each year, and BC Children’s is the only hospital in the province devoted solely to the care of children and youth, addressing both physical and mental health.”
