Sioux Lookout’s Jonathan Ho is the lucky winner of the latest Lake of the Woods District Hospital Foundation online 50/50 draw.
Ho takes home $155,155.
He has been living and working in Sioux Lookout for 6 years and is a grade 3/4 teacher at Sioux Mountain Public School.
Ho says he doesn’t know if its actually sunk in yet noting “I’ve purchased tickets for the last couple draws and I see on social medial all the time that K-Town has this triple digit, sunshine list size draw and I thought wow, why not? I have a buddy who lives in Kenora and we’re always like I’m going to win, no I’m going to win. It never came around until today! I don’t think he believed me!’
When asked about what he might do with his winnings, Ho says he has no clue right now but says he’s going to buy all his buddies, McDonalds.
The big winner is the Kenora hospital as another $155,155 will go towards the purchase of medical equipment that’s not funded by the government.
Tickets for February’s draw are on sale now and remain online only.
They will be available until Thursday, February 25 at 9 p.m.
