Good Luck!
The 2025 Breathe and Win raffle is now closed. The draw is December 12th at 10 AM.
All funds raised support vital research, advocacy, education, and patient support programs to improve lung health in Saskatchewan. Thanks to your support for this raffle and previous raffles, in the last year, we have been able to:
- Advocate for the restriction of nicotine pouches as an important step toward protecting youth from nicotine addiction and long-term health risks. As of August 28, 2024 the sale of Zonnic nicotine pouches were prohibited in all convenience stores and gas stations across Canada. These products are now only available behind the counter in pharmacies as a Nicotine Replacement Therapy.
- Provide financial assistance through the Caring Breaths Financial Assistance program to individuals in 34 communities across Saskatchewan. Recipients include those living with or caring for someone with lung disease, as well as individuals working to complete radon mitigation.
- Contribute over $200,000 to Saskatchewan-led research with our partner, the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation.
- Offer continuing education opportunities, including RESPTREC, Lung Saskatchewan's training agency for health professionals seeking advanced training in diseases such as asthma, COPD, and pulmonary fibrosis.
- Expand our radon test kit options to include continuous radon monitors in addition to our long-term test, as well as supporting the library lending program in three Saskatchewan communities. If you have not tested your home yet visit HomeRadonTest.ca.
- Grow membership in our six online communities of support (asthma, lung transplant, sleep apnea, COVID-19, pulmonary fibrosis, and smoking cessation) that provide a safe forum for people to come together to support one another on their lung health journey.
- Offer the ‘Saskatchewan Quit Smoking Challenge’ to support people from across Saskatchewan on their quit journey. Over 890 people have joined the group for support on their quit journey.
We could not do the work that we do, and ensure that every person has every opportunity to breathe life in, without you. Thank you for helping Saskatchewan breathe easier!
