After buying a number of $30 calendars through Shop4Charity in support of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, then giving them away, he was notified that one of them (all registered in his name) was one of six second-place winners in the nation.
The prize? A new Toyota Highlander Hybrid XLE (approx. value $56,000) and a trip for two to Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya, Mexico (approx. value $5,600).
Thurston says the woman he gave the calendar to wants to remain anonymous but that he’s very happy for her.
The draw was conducted live on TV in Toronto on Dec. 12.
A 49-year-old Calgary resident, Shari Laubenstein, is the early-bird winner of the $1 million first prize.
The five other second-place winners are
Scott Whitelaw, Lethbridge, Alberta; Bill Murray, Sauble Beach, Ontario; Patricia Lebrun, Lebel-sur-Quévillon, Quebec; Brad Hutchison, Abbotsford, British Columbia; and Wendy Buchan, Sherwood Park, Alberta.
The Shop4Charity Calendar Sweepstakes directs 75 per cent of net proceeds to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
