Cynthia Stafford: An example to us all

Friday, April 2nd, 2010

It is always fascinating to read about how lotteries can drastically change the lives of winners for the better – trading in the council flat for a multi-million pound/dollar/euro mansion in a wealthy neighbourhood, or splashing out on a fancy new car or two. However, rarely is it that we hear, or celebrate, those who give back to their community and use their new found fortune to benefit others, as opposed to treating themselves.

Cynthia Stafford won a $112 million in the California Lottery three years ago, and since then has dedicated her life and wealth to giving back to the community and the underprivileged. Even before her win, Cynthia was always generous and big supporter of UNICEF.

“If you want to do good for others, start now,” she says. “Don’t wait for the perfect time, because it doesn’t exist. Don’t wait until you have a certain amount of money in the bank, because giving back is not all about money. You can always give of yourself, your time, your services, your energy, and your talents.”
