Once again, the Lakes Region General Hospital Auxiliary is offering the very popular “Make Your Home Beautiful Raffle.” This amazing raffle offers home or office makeovers from The Home Beautiful located in Belmont.

There will be grand prize valued at $5,000. First prize valued at $3,000. Second prize valued at $2,000. Third prize valued at $1,000. In addition there were be two prizes valued at $250 and five prizes valued at $100.

Proceeds will benefit the LRGH Auxiliary. The Auxiliary plans to purchase additional high to low safety beds for the expanded eldercare department upon completion of the LRGH renovation and provide additional wheelchairs for the new lobby area. Our goal is to raise $10,000.

Raffle tickets cost $5 each, 3 for $10 or 10 for $25, and are available throughout the entire raffle at the LRGH Auxiliary Gift Shop at Lakes Region General Hospital, the Franklin Regional Hospital Gift Shop, The Home Beautiful, Gilford Gift Outlet, Kellerhaus, Lee’s Candy Kitchen in Mill Falls and The Laconia Antique Center.

The LRGH Auxiliary has a long-standing history of supporting patient care, and we hope that you will help us provide the additional safety beds and wheelchairs for the hospital expanded areas. For more information, please contact an auxiliary representative at 524-3211-ext. 3172.
