About Festival of Trees

2016’s Festival of Trees raised $950,000. Over the years in total, the event has raised $13,880,513.00!

Funds raised from this year’s Festival will be used to purchase new technology and equipment in two lab departments, Hematology and Microbiology. Festival 2017 funds will also allow for the purchase of new digital technology, called automated digital cell morphology, to further automate the reading of blood films that aid in the diagnosis of different types of blood conditions.

This new technology will reduce the time it takes to process the samples for testing by 50%. This savings will allow the lab to better utilize its valuable staff resources in the face of an ever-increasing workload, plus will feature automated competency assessments. Ultimately, patient care will receive the benefits of this important technology at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre.

When you purchase tickets for Red Deer Hospital Lottery and Mega Bucks 50, you do more than just play—you become part of something bigger. You help bridge the gap between what government funding provides and what your hospital truly needs to deliver exceptional care.

Your support helps fund state-of-the-art equipment that doctors and nurses need right now to care for patients across Central Alberta. While plans for the hospital expansion move forward, healthcare doesn’t wait. Patients in our community need access to life-saving technology today, and your generosity makes that possible.

This year’s lottery will fund essential new and replacement equipment, ensuring your hospital can continue to serve the 500,000 people who rely on it. When you purchase your ticket, you’re investing in innovation, excellence, and a healthier future for Central Alberta.
