Talk about beginner's luck.
Carol Brentnall of Brechin has won the $22,848 grand prize in her first month supporting the Soldiers' Memorial Hospital 50/50 Raffle!
She says she couldn't believe it when the call came advising her of the win. "You're kidding me? Are you serious?"
Support the Soldiers' 50/50 was a no-brainer for Carol, after the exceptional care she says she received at the hospital. "Soldiers' is unlike any other hospital. I felt so supported and cared for during my stay. I wasn't just a number; I was me."
Carol says some winnings will go to charities and communities she believes in most. In fact, when she arrived to pick up her cheque, she brought a cheque of her own, making a substantial donation back to the Soldiers’ Foundation.
The next Soldiers' 50/50 Grand Prize draw is June 27, and Early Bird draws are set for June 2, 9, and 16. With a guaranteed pot of $5,000, and ticket bundles starting at $10.
