Lewis Hollins wins $500,000.00 with 2nd Chance Games

Amount

$500,000
DC native Lewis Hollins was on his way out of town when he got the call that he was the $500,000 grand prize winner of the Neighborhoods Second Chance Contest. "I turned around; wouldn't you?" And, we're glad he did! More than 60,000 people entered the Neighborhoods Second Chance Contest. Lewis' half-million dollar win is the largest single second chance prize in the history of the DC Lottery. A foster parent who believes in second chances, Lewis intends to pay off his current mortgage and purchase another home in DC. He said he was inspired to try the Second Chance winning opportunities from observing others win.
