What is the Big 50/50?

The Big 50/50 is a group of 7 community groups from greater Saint John who have come together to participate in a 50/50 Fundraising initiative. Funds are raised through a weekly progressive jackpot lottery, with the winner taking home 50% of the total jackpot - as long as they have purchased their ticket for that week.

If they have purchased - great! They win half of the pot. If they didn’t purchase their ticket for that week, then their number goes back into the draw for the next week and the money they would have won, is added back to the pot for the next weeks draw. Draws occur every Tuesday at noon!

Who am I supporting?

The great thing about the Big 50/50 is that you aren’t only supporting one community group- you are supporting 7 non-profit/charitable community organizations at the same time!
Groups benefitting from this lottery include:

The Saint John Y Service Club
The Brighten Group
The Rotary Club of Rothesay-Kings
The Rotary Club of Saint John
Make-a-Wish Canada
Big Brothers, Big Sisters
Sea Dogs Foundation
