$487M Powerball Winner Remains a Mystery; Hannaford Donating its Share

 

There's still no word on who won a $487 million Powerball jackpot last month in New Hampshire, but there are plans for the winning supermarket's share of the money.

Someone bought the winning ticket for the July 30 jackpot at the local Hannaford supermarket in Raymond, a southern New Hampshire town of about 10,000. It was the eighth largest U.S. lottery jackpot.

No one has come forward, but Hannaford is getting its commission check on Tuesday. It plans to donate it to charitable organizations to benefit New Hampshire residents.
