This is the 23rd year for the raffle, and over a $1,000,000 has been raised through the fundraiser.

“The membership of the Prince George Firefighters IAFF local 1372 is a group dedicated to making our community a better place through both the on-duty work as well as off-duty fundraising activities. I would like to thank our members, management team, Costco wholesale and Harley Davidson of Prince George for their efforts and contributions. Also, a special thanks to the Spirit of the North, whose partnership with us on this event ensures its continued success and benefit to everyone in our community.” – Mark Dorval, Prince George Fire Fighters Harley Davidson Raffle Committee Chair 

All proceeds from the raffle will go to the Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation and will be directed to funding 2 portable echo ultrasounds at UHNBC. 

“We are once again extremely happy to see that the hard work and continued commitment by the Members of Prince George Firefighters IAFF Local 1372 along with Len Hall and the staff at Harley Davidson have seen such a tremendous response. We really do appreciate our partnership immensely with these supporting groups along with the generosity of all of those who annually support this raffle. It is so satisfying to see the smiles on each of the winner’s faces and their comments that they were “only supporting a great cause”, and didn’t really think they would win are very touching. This is what makes a community and supports the concept that healthcare really does touch us all. Funding of two portable ECHO ultrasounds is an amazing contribution to healthcare in the North.” – Judy Neiser, CEO Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation
