The Royal Alexandria Hospital Foundation is encouraging Albertans to participate in their Split the Pot Lottery to support hospital and healthcare foundations across the province.

30 hospital and healthcare foundations, including the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital Foundation, have partnered up to launch Split the Pot, guaranteeing a $100K jackpot and more than $50K in Early Bird prizes.

The lottery operates as a percentage raffle where 50 per cent of the jackpot will be shared among 13 winners- 60 per cent of the winner’s payout to one winner, 20 per cent equally shared between two winners, and another 20 per cent to be shared between 10 winners.

Hospital and Healthcare foundations across Alberta will win big too. According to Royal Alexandria Hospital Foundation officials, when someone purchases a ticket for Split the Pot, they can choose which foundation will receive the proceeds from their purchase, or if they wish, there is an option to support all participating foundations.
