Inside the 2026 TMC Mega Raffle with Kathy Rice (Aired 02/05/2026)
Andy Taylor welcomes Kathy Rice back to the show to kick off the 2026 TMC Mega Raffle, now in its 14th year, celebrating a remarkable milestone—more than $20 million raised to support TMC Health. Kathy explains how raffle proceeds provide unrestricted funding for patient care programs, advanced medical equipment, and new technologies, allowing TMC Health to respond quickly to the areas of greatest need across the hospital system.
Listeners get a detailed look at why the raffle continues to grow in popularity, including the impressive 3,400 prizes and odds of winning at 1 in 20. This year’s top prizes include two cash grand prizes, early-bird giveaways like a Lexus RX 350 plus $30,000 cash, an 11-day Viking cruise to Alaska with $30,000, multiple vehicles with cash, and trips to destinations around the world. Kathy also stresses the importance of buying tickets early, as the raffle has sold out ahead of deadlines in past years.
The conversation also highlights the always-exciting 50/50 Jackpot, which has already surged past $700,000 and has exceeded $1 million in recent years. Kathy shares how easy it is to participate, with add-on ticket bundles starting at just $10, and even a live jackpot ticker on the website so participants can watch it climb in real time.
Adding heart to the excitement, Kathy shares memorable winner stories—from a woman who taped a picture of a raffle car to her refrigerator and won it, to a longtime mail carrier who finally bought a ticket after years of delivering brochures and drove away with a new car. These stories underscore the emotional and community-driven spirit behind the Mega Raffle.
The segment wraps with a reminder that tickets are $100, or three for $250, and are available to anyone 21 or older who is physically in Arizona at the time of purchase—residents and snowbirds alike. Tickets can be purchased at tmcmegaraffle.org or by calling 1-800-395-8805. As Kathy puts it, buying a ticket isn’t just a chance to win—it’s a way for everyone to be part of the everyday miracles happening at TMC Health.
