This is a new approach to raising funds for the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society, which has been helping animals since 1873,” says Elizabeth Westover, Manager, Ontario SPCA York Region Animal Centre. “This is a rewarding and pawsitive way for people across the province to make a real difference in the lives of animals who need our help – just by purchasing a ticket, you’ve helped an animal, and you might just hit the jackpot, too!”
