Proceeds from Sault Area Hospital Foundation lottery programs help support the purchase of medical equipment for Sault Area Hospital.
On November 28, Lucienne Coleman of Sturgeon Falls, ON won a $100,000 jackpot in the Sault Area Hospital Foundation (SAHF) November 50/50 draw. Lucienne’s lucky number (N-14434245) was drawn electronically, and she was called immediately.
When we called to let her know she was the lucky winner, Lucienne couldn’t believe it! “What an incredible way to start the day,” she shared. Before calling her husband to deliver the good news, she headed straight to the SAHF 50/50 website to double-check the winning number for herself.

From Membership to major win, Lucienne has been a SAHF 50/50 member since the program launched. Even without personal ties to Sault Ste. Marie, she believes in supporting hospitals across the North. Now, her monthly support has come back in an unforgettable way. She’s still deciding what to do with her winnings, but a new car is at the top of her list.

Lucienne wasn’t the only winner this month – November’s Early Bird, Mary Anne Gillespie of Sault Ste. Marie, ON, was the lucky winner of $10,000 on November 13, with ticket N-26623443.
“It’s great to see support come from all across the North. Supporters like Lucienne make it possible for us to invest in equipment and care that helps keep families close to home, especially during the holidays,” said Teresa Martone, Executive Director for Sault Area Hospital Foundation. “To end the 2025 SAHF 50/50 year, the December jackpot is a guaranteed $100,000. Although one lucky winner will take home the grand prize, every ticket purchased helps make a difference for our hospital. Thank you to all who help make these wins possible.”
