What would you do if you won the lottery?  

Would you take a dream vacation? Renovate your home? Or maybe treat your pets to a lifetime supply of toys and treats? Whatever your plans, winning the Ontario SPCA Draws for Paws 50/50 lottery is sure to make anyone’s spirits spring into the air! 

That was certainly the case for Karen C. from Midland. Last fall, Karen received a life-changing phone call letting her know she had won more than $144,000 in the Draws for Paws 50/50 Lottery. Not only did Karen’s big win brighten her day, but it also helped make a meaningful difference for animals across Ontario.  

The Draws for Paws 50/50 Lottery is a rewarding way to support animals in need. When you purchase a ticket, you’re not only entering for a chance to win big – you’re helping create real change for animals across the province. Every ticket helps provide care, support, and second chances for animals who need it most.

Helping animals bloom with care 

Funds raised through the Draws for Paws 50/50 Lottery support our life-changing work across the province, such as reducing pet overpopulation, providing veterinary care in underserved areas, and improving shelter life for furry friends waiting for forever homes through the Ontario SPCA Community Access to Resources, Education, and Support (CARES) Fund.  The CARES Fund is a grant program designed to support SPCAs and Humane Societies in Ontario by providing funding for projects that enhance animal welfare. To learn more, visit ontariospca.ca/caresfund. 

As a registered charity that is 100 per cent donor funded, the Ontario SPCA relies on the generosity of supporters to make these programs possible. Every ticket purchased helps plant the seeds for a brighter future for animals and the families who love them. 

Why not take a chance this spring? Your ticket could help animals in need – and you might just watch your good fortune blossom into a big win.
