It’s your last chance to buy a ticket to support this year’s PG Hospice Dream Home Lottery.

The deadline to buy your tickets is tonight (Monday) at midnight and there are less than 50 remaining as of 1:00 this afternoon.

Executive Director, Donna Flood told MyPGNow.com the final push is always the most exciting.

“It’s pretty instrumental in providing the funding to do the care and the majority of the care goes directly to the Rotary Hospice House. So, really, this fundraising event allows us to do the work that we do so that we can care for people.”

“The sell-out is really important for the work that we do. You have until 11:59 tonight, which is the last opportunity to get your tickets.”

This year’s home is located at 7807 Southridge Avenue and is valued at one million dollars.

“Everyone says don’t worry, it’s a last minute town and I think the worry creates the entity and the entity goes out there and gets people excited, talking about it and gets them actually buying a ticket,” added Flood.

The winner will be drawn at 5pm on Wednesday night.
