Alberta | Split the Pot Lottery - CRH Foundation & Coaldale Health Centre 

We were thrilled to team up with Split the Pot Alberta this past year and were blown away at the support from all Albertans! 

The lottery wrapped up last week with a whopping $447,880.00 jackpot!

Which means $223,940.00 will be put towards healthcare across the province, being split between 33 participating health and hospital foundations in Alberta.

A big congratulations to the 22 Albertan's who've won a share of the remainder of the jackpot split!

Earlier this month, Chinook Regional Hospital and CRH Foundation had the pleasure of hosting CTV Calgary for a spotlight on our partnership in the Alberta wide Split the Pot Lottery and just how people's participation can make a real difference!

CTV On Location Reporter, Adriana Zhang spent some time speaking with CRH Foundation CEO and AHS Staff, on the impact money raised through these efforts have on funding vital equipment in our local communities. 

Check out their interviews below!

Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets in support of this wonderful cause - we hope to see you next time!
