It was a Good Friday indeed for one lucky UK winner who scooped a massive £122 Million (over R2,4 Billion in South Africa) EuroMillions jackpot. The lucky winner matched 5

“What brilliant news, one UK winner has scooped tonight’s massive £122 million EuroMillions jackpot,” joyously commented the senior winner’s adviser, Andy Carter.

“They are now the fifth biggest ever National Lottery winner,” he continued.

According to the UK’s Evening Standard, this win puts the lucky winner in the top 1000 of Sunday Times’ rich list 2020. But the question remains, who’s the lucky winner?

The Good Friday EuroMillions winning numbers were: 04-21-34-40-47, and the Lucky Star numbers were 02 and 05.

 contributes R100,000 towards Dr Sindi Van Zyl’s hospital bill. The famous doctor was diagnosed with Covid-19 at the beginning of the year and admitted to the hospital due to Covid-related complications.

She cannot breathe on her own and has been placed on the ventilator after suffering several complications from her long stay in the ICU. The ventilator is reported to cost over R150,000 per week.

So far, Sindi’s family has paid over R1 Million towards her hospital bill.

According to Sindi’s family, she was ‘in between’ medical aids before suddenly needing medical care. The family has sadly run out of funds and reached out to the public for assistance through their family trust, KHAYA Trust and using the hashtag #GiftSindiLife on Twitter.

Doctor Sindi’s loving and activist nature saw few organisations, including LottoStar, come through with donations towards her hospital and other medical costs.

She’s well-known for her scientific work on guiding and supporting couples and individuals infected with HIV to achieve safe pregnancies.

The loving doctor has also made an appearance on the Afrikaans TV soapie, 7de Laan, contributed as radio DJ on Kaya FM, a columnist on Health24 and Bona Magazine.

She is also known for sharing her journey with depression and health-related issues on her Twitter account.

The cumulative number of Covid-19 cases in South Africa were reported at 1,552,416 on 5th April 2021, by the minister of health, Dr Zweli Mkhize.

LottoStar wishes Dr Sindi a speedy recovery!

Sadly, the kind-hearted Dr. Sindi Van Zyl passed away on Saturday morning, 10 April 2021, after her long battle with Covid-19 in hospital. We send our deepest condolences to the Van Zyl family, friends and loved ones.

It was one of the biggest lottery prizes in US history! The search is finally over as four people who scooped the $1,3 Billion (over R19,3 Billion in South Africa) 

 jackpot in January came forward to claim it.

This puts an end to the rumour mill and speculations that surrounded the mystery of who had won the third-largest jackpot in US history.

The four winners belong to the Wolverine FLL Club and have decided to receive a lump sum payment instead of annual payments – this reduces the windfall to $717,4 Million (over R10,7 Billion) after tax deductions.

According to the winners’ attorney, Kurt Panouses, “This kind of money will impact the families of our club members for generations to come."

"We plan to stay humble and pay it forward through charitable giving in southeast Michigan," continued Panouses.

According to lottery expert, Brett Jacobson, “billions of dollars go unclaimed in lottery prizes each year. Ticket holders often don't realize that they've won secondary prizes, which are issued for tickets that have some but not all of the jackpot numbers. They can range from a $1 prize for getting the correct Mega Millions number to $1 Million or more.”

According to Jacobson, there were 114 prizes worth $1 Million (over R14,9 Million) or more that were unclaimed in 2015 alone.

The winning ticket was bought at a grocery store in Novi, Detroit.

Amy’s brother sent Anele and The Club a voice note explaining what she’s been going through.

 12 Days of Joy recipient is an amazing 7-year-old girl whose wish is to go back to school.

Thato Motloung was hit by a truck at the gate in front of her home in November 2019. She sadly lost her leg and requires a wheelchair.

This incident led to her being referred to a special school as she’s now wheelchair-bound and can’t go back to her old school.

Thato comes from a disadvantaged family in Palm Springs, South of Johannesburg, and the cost of a special school is way too much for her parents.

Thato’s neighbour and nominator, Lindiwe Mahlong, has been trying to raise funds through donations for Thato’s school fees. Lindiwe describes Thato as a very smart girl and wishes for her to be able to go back to school and pursue her dreams like other kids.

The total amount required for Thato’s school fees which include her uniform and hostel fees is R25,900.

Therefore, LottoStar would be contributing a total of R35,000 towards Thato’s school fees and other essentials.
