Thank you for purchasing your Bright Nights 50/50 tickets in support of the BC Professional Fire Fighters' Burn Fund. Thanks to your help, the jackpot reached $523,685 and donations made through this fundraiser totalled $34,162.76!
Congratulations to winner J. Griffin of Vancouver who has won $261,842.50!
The BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund faced a challenging year in 2021. Online donations were down 40% and freezing temperatures stopped the Bright Nights Christmas Train in its tracks, forcing the Burn Fund’s largest annual fundraising event to close. Then in the final week, theft of the main power connection forced the premature cancellation of this beloved holiday tradition.
Every person who purchased Bright Nights 50/50 tickets is a winner. Your ticket purchase helped recoup important funds typically raised through Bright Nights in Stanley Park.
Your support makes a meaningful difference in the lives of burn survivors. We hope that you have the satisfaction of knowing that your ticket purchase directly helps survivors by funding supportive programs, paying for vital medical equipment, and even offering families accommodations when they need it most.
We look forward to welcoming our community back to Bright Nights in Stanley Park next holiday season for its 25th anniversary. An extension of our favourite holiday event, the Bright Nights 50/50 will also return in November 2022 for its third year - in what will certainly be its best year yet!
Thank you for your generous support.
