It took until week 35, but the Ace of Spades has finally been found in the Humane Society London & Middlesex’s Catch the Ace fundraiser.
Jacques Trottier of Alexandria was the lucky winner, taking home $246,356 by locating the Ace of Spades in envelope number 12.
Thanks to the outstanding community support a total of $792,100 was raised, with $396,050 going to the Humane Society where net proceeds will help to provide care and shelter to surrendered pets in the City of London, and Counties of Elgin, Middlesex, and Oxford.
“When we started this lottery in January, we had no idea how long this program would run. Making it to Week 35 was such an impressive feat and, knowing that every single week players were helping to provide medical care and services for animals in our shelter. We are thrilled with the success of Catch the Ace and the support we have received from the community. Thank you to everyone who played along with us!” Executive Director Steve Ryall.
