Claudia Schnetz secures a €10,000 victory in Powerball lottery draw
In a thrilling turn of events, Claudia Schnetz from Zirndorf has won the main prize of 10,000 euros in the latest draw of the popular PS Lottery run by the Sparkassen. Schnetz, a regular participant in the lottery, purchased her winning ticket at the Zirndorf branch of the Sparkassen.
The PS Lottery, known for its dual aim of providing attractive prizes and supporting social causes, distributes its funds as follows: a significant portion goes towards prize money for players, another notable part is saved for the ticket buyers, and a significant share is dedicated to charitable and social purposes. However, exact percentages of the fund distribution are not publicly available.
For Schnetz, the excitement of her win is followed by plans for the future. She intends to invest part of her winnings in a new kitchen machine and buy concert tickets. The rest of her winnings will be saved, according to her.
Interestingly, the savings component of the PS Lottery works on a yearly basis. Each 5-euro ticket in the PS Savings lottery is saved for a year and credited to the customer's account. In this case, Schnetz's winnings will be credited to her account after a year.
The PS Lottery offers two types of draws: popular monthly draws and special draws with larger prizes such as cars or trips. The exact details about these draws, including the amounts won and the specific projects that receive donations, are not disclosed. However, it is known that the Sparkassen annually distribute several million euros as winnings and for local social projects.
Branch manager Matthias Prießnitz and customer advisor Ursula Gross congratulated Schnetz and presented her with champagne and flowers. The PS Savings lottery, with over 53,000 tickets circulating monthly in the region of Fürth, continues to be a popular choice among locals seeking chances of financial gains while contributing to regional charity.

- To add to the charity efforts, a portion of the lottery funds goes towards lotteries, which provide big-wins like Schnetz's, while another part supports various social causes.
