We’ll train you on everything you need to know, from operating the lottery terminal (it’s simple, we promise!) to handling cash and card sales. You’ll quickly become a pro at managing the float and keeping the booth organized.

Celebrating our Volunteers
Dear Tony,
All of us at the Surrey Memorial Hospital Auxiliary wish to express our deepest thanks for your dedicated service to such an important cause in our community.
Twenty-four years is an outstanding gift of your free time, and this kindness will be remembered in the many comforts that those volunteer hours helped to generate for hospital patients. Importantly, your interactions with our customers, whether patients, staff or visitors, helped to brighten their days, especially those who happened to hold the winning numbers ;)
We will miss you!

We get it, life is busy! You can still be a superhero for the hospital without wearing one of our volunteer vests. Every time you buy a 50/50 ticket at our booth or pick up a gift from our shop, you're making a huge contribution. Spreading the word about our work helps, too!
