Boston man plans to give away $25K a year for life lottery prize
A man from Boston who won the lottery plans to give away much of his $25,000 a year for life prize.
Edwin Lovemore, resident of the Mattapan neighborhood in Boston, won $25,000 a year for life playing "Lucky for Life" on Sept. 25. He came forward on Dec. 18 to claim his prize.
Lovemore chose the cash option on his prize and received a one-time payment of $390,000 before taxes. He told the lottery he plans on helping his family, the church and donating the prize to charity.
Lovemore bought his winning ticket at the 7-Eleven located at 451 Centre St. in Jamaica Plain.
The multi-state "Lucky for Life" lottery game will end at the start of 2026, to be replaced by a new $5 drawing game called "Millionaire for Life." In the new game, players will have the chance to win $1 million a year for life.
