Linda Reid wins $107,067.50

On September 30th, Linda Reid of Sault Ste. Marie, ON won a $107,067.50 jackpot in the Sault Area Hospital Foundation (SAHF) September 50/50 draw. Her lucky number (SP-9036229) was drawn electronically, and she was contacted immediately.

Linda was shocked by the news, and had the SAHF team repeat the amount she’d won a few times before it truly sank in. When asked how she planned to use her winnings, Linda shared the plans she and her husband Randy had for the prize: “We love cruising! We’re definitely looking at a Hawaiian cruise – that’s been on our bucket list since we retired 19 years ago. We’re also planning to contribute to some charities, and to give some to the kids.”


Linda isn’t the first Reid family member to win – her niece, Robin, won SAHF 50/50 in November of 2020.


“So many people we know, when they’ve found out we won, have been saying ‘oh, I need to start getting those tickets, too’,” Linda shared.


Linda wasn’t the only local winner in September! Congratulations are also in order for last month’s $10,000 early bird winners – who were all from the Sault Ste. Marie area! Winners included: David Elson (SP-7137679) of Goulais River on September 9; Brenda Kent (SP-1781862) of Sault Ste. Marie on September 16; and Susanne Kesten-Hofmann (SP-1118021) of Aweres Twp on September 23.


“The local support for SAHF 50/50 has always been so strong, and we’re so grateful to everyone in our community who participates in this draw,” said Teresa Martone, Executive Director, Sault Area Hospital Foundation. “As we head toward Thanksgiving weekend, we’re saying ‘thanks’ for the continued support from our thousands of lottery purchasers each month. Their ‘chance to win’ helps so many – purchasing critical medical equipment, and helping our hospital deliver outstanding care.”
