When Marcel Lussier of Montérégie won just over $70,000,000 in the June 2022 Lotto Max jackpot draw, he told Loto-Québec he had "71 million plans for the future." One of these plans has revealed itself to be a "historic" donation of $7,000,000 to autism advocacy organization the Véro & Louis Foundation, which is planning to build two new houses for autistic adults with this new influx of money.
A Quebec lottery winner has made an historic donation to a local autism foundation to fund two new houses for adults. Marcel Lussier, a retired Hydro-Quebec engineer, picked up his winning ticket in June last year. At the time, he said "it was a normal day," until it wasn’t. His ticket won the jackpot: $70 million.
