Carson Tahoe Health invites the community to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win $15,000 cash or a brand-new Toyota Corolla, while making a meaningful difference in the lives of local cancer patients and their families.

Thanks to the longstanding generosity of Carson City Toyota, a valued community partner for nearly two decades, every raffle ticket purchased helps provide critical support to individuals facing cancer throughout our region.

Proceeds from this year’s raffle directly support the Carson Tahoe Cancer Resource Center and the Merriner Cottages, providing rural patients with a safe, healing place to stay at no cost while receiving care far from home. Funds raised also help cover transportation, lodging, everyday essentials, patient education, and compassionate support services — ensuring that no one has to face cancer alone.

With early detection, advanced treatment options, and nationally recognized oncology expertise, more people than ever are surviving and thriving after a cancer diagnosis. Carson Tahoe delivers comprehensive cancer care close to home, offering patients convenient access to medical oncology, radiation oncology, infusion services, supportive care, and an experienced team dedicated to guiding them through every step of their cancer journey.

 “A cancer diagnosis affects every part of a person’s life, not just their health. Through this raffle, our community is helping ensure that local patients have access to the practical support, compassionate care, and resources they need so they can focus on what matters most: healing,” said Michelle Joy, CEO of Carson Tahoe Health.

Raffle tickets are $10 each or six for $50, making it easy for everyone to participate while supporting a vital community cause.

The winning ticket will be drawn live at Carson Tahoe Health’s Regional Medical Center on October 8, 2026. Participants do not need to be present to win.

Community members are encouraged to purchase tickets, share the opportunity with family and friends, and help bring hope and healing to local families affected by cancer.
