This young lady is a volunteer at a nonprofit home for mothers and their children. She raised $200 collecting bottle and cans and used the money for buying raffle tickets at the home she volunteers at. The raffle and gala are a major fundraiser for the home that offers mothers and pregnant women a place where they can live, raise their children and get parenting help. The goal of the home is to prevent abortions by giving women and children a safe place to live. She won this 2015 Chevy Tahoe LTZ and immediately donated the truck back to the charity. What a wonderful young lady she is not only to volunteer but to win a vehicle and donate it back to them.

No she herself wouldn't but she only put her last name on the raffle tickets and her parents gave their permission and were at the drawing is how it was done.

She had told her family that if she won she would donate it back to the home as they could use a good vehicle.

Yes it definitely was as she has 7 siblings so it would have been a good family vehicle I guess.

I bet in three years time she would wish she had kept it. By then she will be 18 and driving. But that was a nice thing to do nonetheless. Most people wouldn't donate it back. And besides, since she is only 15, what was she going to do with a big truck like that.

As I understand it she only put her last name on the raffle ticket so her parents could donate it back as that was her wish and her money that bought the tickets.

@Marcyaz Okay. I assume then that the parents did donate it back as per their daughters request.
