Canucks 50/50 raffle opens online to fund BC children's health and education
Tonight's Vancouver Canucks 50/50 raffle is now open for online sales, with proceeds supporting children's health and education in British Columbia. The initiative is a joint effort between the Canucks for Kids Fund and the Sedin Family Foundation, which has already invested over $450,000 in local communities. Fans can buy tickets until the end of the second intermission for a chance to win half the final jackpot. The Sedin Family Foundation was established in 2013 by Henrik, Johanna, Daniel, and Marinette Sedin. Its mission is to improve family wellness, children's health, and education across BC. The foundation works closely with schools, community groups, and social service agencies to fund essential programs.
Last year, donations helped provide school food programs, clothing, and other necessities in northern BC communities. While specific projects in Surrey, Abbotsford, or Kelowna are not publicly detailed, the foundation's broader efforts include youth hockey, mental health, and general community support.
The Canucks for Kids Fund has contributed over $115 million to BC charities in the past 40 years. Tonight's raffle continues this tradition, with 50% of the jackpot going to the winner and the rest supporting the Sedin Family Foundation. Ticket packs are available online at vancouvercanucks5050.com, ranging from 5 tickets for $10 to 500 tickets for $100. The raffle offers a chance to win a share of the jackpot while directly funding local children's programs. Sales close at the end of the second intermission, with all proceeds going toward health, education, and family wellness initiatives in BC. The partnership between the Canucks and the Sedins ensures continued support for communities across the province.
