Since its inception in 2003, the Raffle has served as a unique tool to raise much-needed funds in a short period of time, raising more than $50 million for St. Joseph’s and Barrow. The biannual Raffle helps the hospital fund research, medical education, and patient care. To date, more than 119,000 prizes have been awarded to Raffle participants, including 27 homes, 410 trips, 357 vehicles and more than $14 million cash. Whenever possible, prizes are purchased in the state of Arizona. Tickets are $100 and must be purchased in the state, but participants do not have to be residents of Arizona to win.
