The 2021 Choices Lottery in support of the BC Children's Hospital Foundation has officially launched, and one of the major prize home packages is local. 

The $2.4 million package includes a 4,400 square foot, six-bedroom, four-bathroom home in the Heritage Hills development in Okanagan Falls. 

It boasts sweeping views of Skaha Lake and sits at 125 Cabernet Drive. 

The winner will also get a 2020 Monterey M22 Deck Boat, 2021 Toyota Tundra double cab TRD off-road package, 2021 Audi A7 Sportback Technik Quattro and $1 million in cash. 

This prize package is one of several up for grabs, with other homes in Vancouver, South Surrey, Victoria, Vernon and Courtenay which the grand prize winner can have their pick from, or choose a $2.2 million tax-free cash prize.

Proceeds from the lottery's ticket sales go to support research that leads to innovative discoveries and treatments, which in turn directly helps experts at BC Children’s Hospital advance their quest to conquer childhood illnesses.

“During these uncertain times, the money raised through the Choices Lottery is more important than ever. These funds go towards groundbreaking research and discovering new treatments for sick and injured children across B.C. and the Yukon,” said Teri Nicholas, president and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.

“These discoveries are so critical in our quest to conquer childhood illnesses, which still impact too many children in our province. Thank you to everyone who supports the Choices Lottery; you are helping us transform pediatric health care.”
