Attorneys for the anonymous woman who won the nearly $560 million Powerball jackpot in New Hampshire two months ago have accepted the cash prize on her behalf.
Representatives from the law firm Shaheen & Gordon, P.A., accepted the giant check from the New Hampshire Lottery Commission at a press conference Wednesday in Concord, New Hampshire. The woman, who was the sole winner of the Jan. 6 drawing, opted to collect the winnings as a lump-sum cash prize to the tune of $352 million before taxes.
The lawyers also announced her plans to share the wealth by making major donations to charities, including $150,000 to Girls Inc. and $33,000 each to three New Hampshire chapters of End 68 Hours of Hunger.
