When you buy a Heart&Stroke Lottery ticket, it's more than just a chance to win. It's a chance for you and millions of Ontarians to live longer, healthier and happier lives. Over the past 13 years, the Foundation's lottery has contributed almost $160 million towards life-saving research in heart disease and stroke that supports health education, community programs and more effective treatment guidelines used by healthcare providers. Without your support of the lottery this life-saving research might not have been possible. It's just one way we are working together to help people in communities across Ontario live longer, healthier lives. Click here to see the map of where you help save lives across Ontario.
