HOW IS PURCHASING A TICKET DIFFERENT THAN MAKING A DONATION?
Lotteries are a ticket purchase in a game of chance and under the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) guidelines no tax receipt can be offered. In every facet of our business, we approach fundraising and lottery events in the same manner—to be as cost effective and as successful as we can possibly be in order to elevate health care for the people in the community we serve.
