Lottery Winner Gives Prize to Charity

A Michigan man who won $10,000 in the state lottery's Club Keno game has donated his winnings to a charity.
Soon after winning the money on March 11, Jim Dancy of Richland, Mich., decided others needed it more than he did. So he gave it all to the Greater Kalamazoo United Way.
"I was heavily influenced by my close friend Julie, who taught me to think of others first, and to stop and think about what life is really about. I know the needs in the community are great right now, so for me it was the right thing to do," Dancy said in a statement released by the Michigan Lottery.
'It was the right thing to do,' he says of $10,000 donation to United Way
If you won $10,000, what would you do with the bulk of it?
