To the Editor:
Twenty-four years ago, the Children's Wish Foundation took a huge gamble when they leapt into the world of large-scale home lotteries. At the time, it was ground-breaking to offer such an extravagant prize, and a completely new fundraising idea in Saskatchewan.
Over the years, as larger organizations followed their lead, the little Children's Wish Home Lottery also evolved and grew. They began to offer more creative prize options, and also expanded to include the entire province.
In response to requests from rural Saskatchewan, this year's Children's Wish Home Lottery took the next step in its evolution as a full provincial fundraiser. The winner of the $1 Million Grand Prize can choose to use the funds to build a custom home anywhere in the province or take the entire prize in cash.
This makes it not only the largest Grand Prize ever offered by the Children's Wish Home Lottery, it is also the largest cash prize option in the history of all home lotteries in Saskatchewan.
It's an amazing Saskatchewan success story for a little Foundation that cares.
