Patients from Cairns and all over Queensland will be given a helping hand through ticket sales to the Mater Prize Home Lottery.
Ticket holders will go in the draw to win their choice of a house at Canopy’s Edge in Tropical North Queensland valued at over $1 million.
The fully furnished home is built on two blocks of land with the luxury residence on one block and the tennis court on the other combining to form your very own tropical paradise.
The home features open plan living and dining, a fully equipped kitchen with breakfast bar and granite bench top, an entertainment room with a plasma TV and Blu-ray player, 4 bedrooms including a large separate main bedroom with ensuite and walk in robes, terrace with outdoor bar, BBQ and pool area, double garage and a tennis court.
This award-winning Better Homes designed and built home is located in the master-planned Canopy’s Edge community which is nestled between the heritage listed rainforest of the Macalister Ranges and the Coral Sea, opposite the Smithfield Shopping Centre. The world heritage listed Daintree rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef are both just minutes away. The estate is also just a short drive to Cairns CBD and the airport and is on the way to the Northern Beaches and Port Douglas.
The lottery will help support patient care and research at Mater. Mater’s seven hospitals provide exceptional care for more than half a million babies, children, adults and their families each year.
Mater Foundation Executive Director Nigel Harris said he encouraged people to support the Mater Prize Home Lottery by buying a ticket or becoming a VIP.
“With the help of Mater Prize Home supporters, 88 unique clinical and research projects were funded at Mater in the past 12 months to support patient care and medical research in and beyond the Queensland community.”
Mater Prize Home VIP members benefit from exclusive draws including weekly $5000 holiday draws, and the chance to win one of two $25 000 gold bullion draws every lottery.
The Mater Prize Home is open for display 9 am – 5 pm daily until Wednesday 26 October 2011. Prize is drawn Friday 28th October 2011.
For as little as $2 supporters can have the chance to win this piece of paradise and make a difference to patients from their local community—visit www.materprizehome.com.au.
