OUR FIRST ON-LINE 50/50 Draw


In February 2021, Critter Care Wildlife Society launched its inaugural online 50/50 draw,

marking a significant milestone for the organization. Critter Care Wildlife Society specializes

in the treatment, care, and release of sick, injured, and orphaned Native Mammal species of British Columbia’s Southern and Lower Mainland. We are the only facility in BC specializing

in the care of mammals and one of only three bear rehabilitation facilities in the province.


Despite initial apprehensions, the response exceeded expectations as the jackpot steadily

grew over the course of the campaign, eventually reaching an impressive sum of $57,705.

This success not only demonstrated the community's enthusiasm for supporting Critter Care's mission but also highlighted the potential of online fundraising initiatives.


Kim Madill emerged as the fortunate winner of the inaugural draw, claiming the substantial jackpot. A feature article in the Langley Advance Times captured the excitement surrounding the draw and highlighted the positive impact of the funds raised on Critter Care's initiatives.

the tradition of hosting online 50/50 draw. In 2023, Carolyn Daleo emerged as the lucky winner, further cementing the draw's popularity and success.


As Critter Care looks ahead to future fundraising endeavours, the success of its online 50/50 draws serves as a testament to the power of community support and the organization's unwavering commitment to wildlife conservation and rehabilitation. With each draw, Critter Care continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of animals in need, thanks to the ongoing support of its dedicated supporters and donors.
