John Bajak of North Battleford is the winner of the $1,000 Early Bird prize in Battlefords Union Hospital Foundation’s 2018-19 Monthly Lottery.
It was Bajak’s first time purchasing Monthly Lottery tickets with BUH Foundation.
The monthly draws will start Friday and run until March 2019. There will be 13 draws every month with a total of $4,000 given away. There are only 49 tickets remaining and still time to get in on Friday’s draw.
Tickets are $110 each and may be ordered by calling 306-446-6652, stopping at the foundation office at BUH or going online at buhfoundation.com. Cheques may also be mailed to Box 1358, North Battleford, S9A 3L8.
Proceeds from the 2018-19 Monthly Lottery will purchase a new pulmonary function unit for respiratory therapies. A pulmonary function unit measures how well a patient’s lungs are working and can help assess current lung conditions, if patients are responding to treatment and can help diagnose conditions such as asthma, allergies, respiratory infections or lung cancer.
