VIDEO: Hospital Home Lottery Opens Its Doors

The doors are open to your new dream home.

The Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation announcing the launch of their fifth annual Hospital Home Lottery.

The new 3,000 square feet home is located in Rothesay and worth over $775,000. Tim Cameron, CEO of the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation, tells CHSJ news they hope to raise more than a million dollars to support programing and equipment. He says a lot of the money is saved for when doctors need a specific piece of equipment, but the funds have also supported stem cell transportation programs, lab equipment to speed up investigations of infections, and for heart lung machines.

Patrick Oland, Chair of Hospital Foundation Saint John Regional, tells CHSJ news they believe this years house and prizes are better than ever. He says every year they want to learn more of what people want to win.

Tim Cameron suggests getting tickets early since they sold out within six weeks last year.
