Two Georgia Lottery players scored big wins on October 19, with one taking home $50,000 from Powerball and another winning $100,000 through an online lottery game.

The $50,000 Powerball-winning ticket was sold at Chevron Food Mart, located at 630 Fairview Road in Stockbridge. The lucky player matched four white-ball numbers and the red Powerball to claim the prize.

Meanwhile, a resident of Sandy Springs won $100,000 playing the Soccer Fortune Diggi Game on the same day. Diggi Games are available exclusively through the Georgia Lottery website and mobile app to players located within Georgia.

The money supports programs such as Georgia's HOPE Scholarship and Pre-K initiatives. These programs have benefited more than 2.3 million scholarship recipients and more than 2.3 million children enrolled in prekindergarten.

Every ticket sold helps support these educational programs while giving players a chance to win big.
