Ian*, from Far North Queensland, was still in his pyjamas when he got the call that would change his life.
He’d just won RSL Art Union Draw 392: the ultimate $3.6 million beachfront oasis!
“Tell me please you’re not a prank call!” Ian said as Deborah Pescott, Head of Lotteries Commercial Operations, delivered the happy news.
Ian handed the phone to his wife Pamela*, and it became clear he was trying to prove a point.
“I’m just looking at his face,” Pamela laughed. “He’s giving me the look because I’m the one rousing at him about buying tickets all the time!”

Looks like Ian is out of the doghouse! He and Pamela are now the owners of a luxury, absolute beachfront apartment in the heart of Surfers Paradise, valued at $3.2 million.
With three bedrooms, an oversized balcony, $136,784 worth of furniture and appliances, and breathtaking ocean views, this beautiful prize home offers a dream escape.
Ian and Pamela will get to spend endless summers relaxing at the beach or in the pool, enjoying all the wonders of the Gold Coast!
Plus, they’ll have $350,000 in gold – including a bonus $100,000, because they bought a $100 ticket book – to spend as they please!
As excited as they were about the chance of winning a prize, Ian and Pamela have very personal reasons for supporting RSL Art Union.
Ian’s late father was a serviceman and, after the bombing of Japan, was one of the first Australians dispatched to assist with the clean-up.
“It affected his lungs for many, many years,” Pamela explained. “So anything to do with RSL has always been very, very important to our family.”
Winning a multimillion-dollar dream home, while also helping veterans in need, has been the ultimate win-win for Ian and Pamela.
“The fact that it’s an RSL prize home just makes it that little bit more special.”
Congratulations, Ian and Pamela – we wish you all the very best for the future!
A heartfelt thanks to you, and to all RSL Art Union’s wonderful supporters. Every ticket sold helps veterans in Queensland and throughout Australia.
