Great to see, those that CAN stepping up and DOING -

plus they got to 'say' how it was done - with radiant heating in the floors, energy efficiency and lots of room to expand

WTG HILL FAMILY, HATS OFF TO YOU FOR DOING SOMETHING GOOD WITH YOUR WINNINGS!

This is how a how a lottery winners story SHOULD read. Not like the piece of trash out here on the coast of NC that keeps bailing out her Hot Sauce boyfriend for drug dealing every other month. She had Promised to help her community, but instead pi$$ed most of it away bailing out her deadbeat drug dealer boyfriend. That county is rich now for sure.

If you win, BE SURE to give back to those that helped you i... [ More ]

Mark and Cindy Hill said that they wanted to change their family and community. The have followed through.

These are the type of winners who stay out of the police blotter. There are plenty of past winners who we never hear from again. Look at www.powerball.com and www.megamillion.com The list of past winners are there.

It's nice to hear of good things coming out of winning a lottery. Not just buying fancy cars, homes, boats and other lavish un-necessities.

I hope that when I win, I will win enough to be able to do some good with the money as well as these people.

Now all I need to do is win. I bought my 1 MM and 1 PB ticket today. I'm in it, now I just have to win it

I love stories like this; if i recall correctly they said they'd be doing things like this. Positive stories stick out much better and longer than the negative ones.

Includes video report

A town in Missouri is celebrating its new state-of-the-art fire facility, but the community's lottery millionaires are humble about what they did to make it happen.

The building, which took more than a year to build, houses both the ambulance service and the community's fire trucks.

The project would not have happened if fire volunteers hadn't twice saved Mark Hill's father's life.

My wife and I were able to pay them back, Hill said
