Excitement continues to build around the Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation's Catch the Ace lottery as community support remains strong and weekly winners continue to celebrate growing prizes.

 

In Week #2, Maggie Gleiser took home $6,344, while Tanya Gervais claimed $6,629 in the Week #3 draw.

 

Following a record-breaking opening week, ticket sales have remained exceptionally strong as residents across the Upper Ottawa Valley continue to rally behind local healthcare. The enthusiasm comes on the heels of the Foundation's previous Catch the Ace lottery, which culminated in a life-changing jackpot of more than $1 million.

 

"We continue to be amazed by the enthusiasm and support from our community," said Roger Martin, Executive Director of the Pembroke Regional Hospital Foundation. "Every ticket purchased helps support important equipment needs at Pembroke Regional Hospital while giving participants the chance to win exciting prizes. The response to Catch the Ace has been incredible."

 

Thanks to the outstanding support of participants, Catch the Ace has already helped the Together, We Care campaign reach its goal of funding the final three Acute Mental Health (AMH) Security Beds needed at Pembroke Regional Hospital.

 

The previous Catch the Ace lottery funded the first 10 AMH Security Beds, and proceeds from the current lottery completed funding for the remaining three beds in just three weeks. The specialized beds will enhance safety for patients and staff while supporting compassionate mental health care close to home.

 

While this important milestone has been achieved, Catch the Ace continues, with proceeds supporting the broader goals of the Together, We Care campaign and helping fund priority equipment needs at Pembroke Regional Hospital.
