If I won a million dollars, 15% to 25% would be for Hunger, the blind, and diease control

Oh, lottery dreams...If I could win, I would, no doubt, give more than 25% to charity. Schools, women's shelters, children's charities, church, and many other fabulous organizations would win with me.

I am the webmaster to a number of charitible organizations so heck ys, 25% or more to them!

I WILL GIVE A CERTAIN PERCENT IN MEMEORY
TO MY PARENTS TO THE CANCER ORG. AND WHEN I HEAR A STORY ON THE NEWS ABOUT ANYONE HAVING GREAT STRUGGLE I WILL GIVE THEM A NICE DONATION
BECAUSE THEIR STORY TOUCHED MY HEART AND I CAN RELATE TO IT.

I would give 25% to charities and colleges, especially for students that can't afford to attend. When I returned to college at the age of 48, I was among some of the brightest students that really struggled with school and part-time jobs. I would set-up a program to target those students so they would not have to worry about so much stress.

I WOULD GIVE 10% WHICH THE LORD ASK AND PROABLY MORE KNOWING ME I HAVE HAD ALOT COMPARED TO OTHERS. I LOVE TO GIVE I WOULD CERTAINTLY LIKE TO HELP AND SOMEHOW REPAY THE THOUGHFULNESS TO THE ONES WHOM WHERE THERE FOR ME.ALTHOUGH AM MORAL I GUESS THERE WOULD BE A SHOPPING SPREE LIKE NO OTHER.

I would give it all to our local boys and girls club here in our area. We are in need of funds to operate....we are a small community with no industries and it's very hard when you have to fund raise constantly. I have personally seen so many lives of children changed....keeping them off the streets and giving them a stay place that they can call their own!

I'D LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HELP MY FAMILY AND GIVE TO OUR LOCAL FOOD & HOMELESS SHELTER'S.ALSO I WOULD MAKE SURE NO MORE ANIMAL SHELTER'S HAD TO KILL UNWANTED PET'S. I'D ALSO SUPPORT HEALTH ISSUE'S TO HELP FIND CURES FOR ORPHAN DISEASE'S.

If I won a Million Dollars I would help My family especially my children and my Brother who has MS He now lives in an apartment house with about 20 stairs and its hard for him to get out of the house I would buy him a really nice cottage with everything he needs then I would take care of my self

I would at least give 15% or more to charity and not just well-known national or global charities. I would give to my city's local shelters, food banks, churches, and other services helping those who are trying to help themselves. I would give to local families dealing with their childrens' illnesses, floods, fire, and other hardships. I would want to ease some of their burden. I would do it like random acts of kindness.

defitenly 10%that is what the Lord requires of us!!!!probaly i would give more.i would find families of dire needs,college students who are working,sometime 2,3 jobs just to barely keep afloat,set up account at the bank,for all of them,and a trustee to over look the money.also so they could have some fun money.i might take a bunch of children shopping,woun/t that be fun!!!i would keep enough for us,our children,grand children,great grandchild. honestly,i would need a trusteetofollow me around.i would give probably till it was gone....what fun i would have!!!!!!

After seven years of running a library with insufficient space for students to study, or for us to proctor tests in privacy or provide enough computers for all the people who would like to search/apply for jobs, most of my lottery win would go to building a new library with room for all. Please think of your local library when you are looking for a way to help. Libraries are major partners in helping people improve their lives.

Since I am on the verge of losing my home, I would first use it on myself. It would take a miracle to win the lottery. I would help another friend in need.

first, I'll make my family debt-free first.
Then put aside college money for the kids.
The rest for our retirement, charity and health researches
