The Covenant Foundation is running a 50/50 cash raffle in support of Banff’s Mineral Springs Hospital.

Proceeds from the fundraiser will stay in Banff to support the areas of greatest need at the Mineral Springs Hospital – from enhanced care spaces to leading-edge programs and state-of-the-art equipment.
This is the foundation’s second annual 50/50 for the Banff hospital. This year it’s sponsored by 106.5 Mountain FM.
