The latest health and medical news emailed to you every Sunday.

“We know we are strongest when we work together. Your tickets help buy the tools and services to provide the best care,” McIntyre Royston said.

The fundraiser is in support of nearly 60 hospital foundations, including Guelph General. The lottery’s third installment was announced on May 10.

Right now, the payout sits at more than $500,000 and the chances to win are even greater as it’ll be divided among 13 prize winners.

Proceeds from each ticket purchase can either go to a hospital foundation of the buyer’s choosing or shared equally the nearly 60 participating hospital foundations.

There are thousands of dollars in early rewards still available as well for early ticket buyers.

Tickets can be purchased on the Split the Pot website.

The fundraiser ends June 20.
