Donate to the Foundation

A donation and a lottery ticket do different things. One gets a tax receipt. The other gets you a chance to win.

Tax receipts

The receipt rule, stated plainly

Donations to the Ajax Pickering Hospital Foundation receive a Canada Revenue Agency charitable tax receipt. Lottery ticket purchases do not, because you receive a chance to win in return.

Canada Revenue Agency rules do not allow a charitable receipt where the giver receives something of value in return, and a chance to win a car counts as something of value. That is not a Foundation policy and there is no way around it. If a tax receipt matters to you, give through one of the channels below rather than through the raffle.

What it buys

Donations go on the same equipment list

50% of every dollar spent on 50/50 tickets goes to the winner. The remaining half, and the proceeds of the main lottery after prize and licence costs, fund cancer diagnostics and treatment at Lakeridge Health — Ajax Pickering Hospital.

  • Endoscopy towers and colonoscopes

    Used in the Ajax Pickering endoscopy suite, where colorectal cancers are found early enough to be removed during the same procedure.

    $412,000 2024

  • Digital mammography and breast ultrasound

    Imaging equipment for the diagnostic breast assessment programme, shortening the wait between an abnormal screen and a confirmed diagnosis.

    $268,500 2024

  • Laparoscopic surgical instrumentation

    Minimally invasive instruments for cancer surgery in the Ajax Pickering operating rooms, which shortens recovery and hospital stays.

    $190,300 2025
