Support Your Parents When it Counts

Old age is a milestone that should be celebrated.

We all have aging loved ones who have an important place in our lives. So, it’s vital we ensure their golden years stay golden. Our aging population is growing faster than any other age demographic in Alberta, which is why this year’s lottery is focused on advancing seniors care throughout the province at each of these locations: 

Edmonton

Edmonton General Continuing Care Centre, Misericordia Community Hospital, Grey Nuns Community Hospital, Saint-Thomas Health Centre, St. Joseph’s Auxiliary Hospital, Villa Caritas 

Calgary

Evanston Summit, Holy Cross Manor, St. Marguerite Manor/Dulcina Hospice, St. Teresa Place 

St. Albert

Foyer Lacombe, Youville Home 

Beaumont

Chateau Vitaline 

Vegreville

St. Joseph’s General Hospital

Red Deer

Villa Marie

Banff

Banff Mineral Springs Hospital

Medicine Hat

St. Joseph’s Home

Lethbridge

Buffalo Grace Manor, Martha’s House, St. Michael’s Health Centre, St. Therese Villa 

We’ve already committed $8.7 Million towards seniors care since 2016, but with your support, we can do so much more.  

Your ticket purchase directly supports the loved ones in your community, helps us champion innovation and nurture wellness, and enhances the quality of life for everyone the Covenant family serves.

Carla Howatt, Senior Communications Advisor with Covenant Health

“I buy Covenant Foundation lottery tickets because my parents are aging and are using the health care system more than ever before. I want their experiences to be positive so their children and grandchildren can focus on supporting them instead of worrying about their care.”
