Seven inner-city parochial schools in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati will benefit from the commission of a $250-million Mega Millions winning lottery ticket.
The winning ticket was sold in April at a Cincinnati Kroger grocery store. The store has decided to donate its $100,000 commission, in part, to the archdiocese’s Catholic Inner-city Schools Education Fund. 15 other charities will also receive a share of the store’s money, reported the Cincinnati Business Courier.
