David has been living Dubai with her family for the last 20 years and has made it a practice to join the raffle each month, sharing the amount with friends.
###
She told organisers the winning the ticket is shared by 10 people — so each would share Dh1 million. That’s about Php14.2 million at current exchange rate.
###
Her plan for the prize money? Build a house for her son who will turn 11 this month — and also help build a church in her hometown.
###
“Keep on trying, keep you your faith, and maybe God will do something and you will win soon!” David told organisers.
###
David is from Pasig City, a suburb of Manila.
###
David won with her Ticket No. 172193. She won an equivalent of Php142 million, certainly a life-changing amount in her home country, the Philippines.
###
On the phone, David could not believe her ears and initially thought it was a prank from other friends.
###
“I think you are not teasing me because people call and tease about such prizes,” David told Big Ticket Raffle host Richard on the phone.
###
Later, she was convinced that the call from Richard, is for real.
