Saskatoon, May 16 - You still have time to win a prize and change a life with the 2012 Share The Air Raffle (Lottery License #LR11-0070). The Lung Association of Saskatchewan and their corporate partner, SaskEnergy, invite you to order your tickets before midnight on May 25th for your chance to win the grand prize of up to $120,000 in tax-free cash or one of the other 84 great prizes!
A chance to win an exciting prize is reason enough to purchase your tickets, but your support will also change the lives of people that are affected by lung disease. We all know what it is like to drag yourself through a day because you did not sleep well the night before. Imagine living like that all the time! People with obstructive sleep apnea stop breathing during sleep which causes them to be very tired during the day. If left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to major health problems, accidents, and early death. But thankfully excellent treatments are available. The Lung Association provides home oxygen testing, important education material, and support groups for people affected by sleep apnea so they can learn to manage their condition. This is just one of the many ways that The Lung Association is fulfilling their mission to improve lung health one breath at a time in Saskatchewan.
Purchase your tickets and you could also win the second prize, an $11,000 Dream Vacation or take the $10,000 cash pay-out to make another dream come true! Win a SaskEnergy Network Member gift certificate for $3,500, $1,500, or $1,000 redeemable for the purchase of natural gas equipment and/or services at any SaskEnergy Network Member location in Saskatchewan. Tickets are still only one for $35, two for $60, or (the best deal) four for $100.
