Theresa B.

Theresa B. of Washington, DC won $50,000 playing Powerball. She purchased her winning ticket at her favorite grocery store, hoping to snag the exciting $1.787 billion jackpot. Her winning numbers were chosen from dates associated with her children and grandchildren. The caregiver for her disabled veteran husband, Theresa, was in her kitchen when she discovered that she was just one number off from the sequence required to win the life-changing prize. Now, $50,000 richer, she plans to share some of her good fortune with others and save the rest. 

Originally from Texas, Theresa has added the Washington Commanders scratcher to the shopping list for her next grocery run. In addition to the game’s great cash prizes, Theresa has eyes on the exhilarating second-chance opportunities that include game tickets and team merchandise.
