Just in time for Christmas, a Cayo woman is celebrating a fortune changing win. After years of trying her luck, she scratched her way to a thirty-thousand-dollar prize over the weekend and came in today to officially claim her winnings. Overwhelmed with gratitude, she says the win feels like a blessing, one that will help her fix her home and enjoy an even more merry holiday season.

 

Winner, Scratch and Win

“I felt so happy and excited. It was a lot of scratching and scratching and scratching, and I never won until today. I am so grateful to God. So yes, I am so happy. This is a blessing from God, because He helped me get this. And after all that scratching, his blessing has reached me. I will be spending it really happy this Christmas.”

“What do you plan to do with the money?”

 

Winner

“I will go and fix my house because it’s all messed up. All the money during the year—it’s gone. It wasn’t enough to put into the house and fix my house. So I am going to go and paint my house, so I am so happy for that. Yes, I will continue playing it because this win has helped me a lot, yeah. I have more than 3 years of playing Scratch. I’ve been playing since they took out the $3 one, then the $5 one. So sometimes as soon as I get my pay, I go straight to buy a ticket and try my luck again. so finally I feel the blessing of winning. Yeah.”
