UPDATE: A Boston man has just announced his incredible plan to give away a significant portion of his $25,000 a year for life lottery prize. Edwin Lovemore, a resident of the Mattapan neighborhood, won big while playing the “Lucky for Life” lottery on September 25, 2023, and he is now ready to share his good fortune.
Lovemore officially claimed his prize on December 18, 2023, opting for a one-time cash payment of $390,000 before taxes. The altruistic winner plans to use this money to support his family, his church, and various charities. His generosity is set to make a lasting impact on his community.
The winning ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 451 Centre St. in Jamaica Plain. Lovemore’s story is a beacon of hope, showing how one person’s luck can spread joy to many.
In a significant shift for lottery players, the multi-state “Lucky for Life” game will conclude at the start of 2026, making way for a new drawing game called “Millionaire for Life.” This upcoming game will allow players the chance to win $1 million a year for life, providing another opportunity for life-changing wins.
As Lovemore embarks on this philanthropic journey, many are watching closely to see how his contributions will shape the community and inspire others to give back. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story and how Lovemore’s actions may influence the lives of those around him.
