At 10 p.m. on Thursday, one lucky person who bought a ticket in support of Drive Away For Education will win an all-new vehicle, courtesy of Ancira!<\/p>\n

The Grand Prize was claimed by Belinda Puente of San Antonio. Ricard Pena was selected as the winner of a $4,000 shopping spree, and Kevin Ward of Boerne was selected to win the $2,500 gas card.<\/p>\n

In total, ticket sales climbed up to $442,000 dollars, all of which will go to support students through the Texas Yes Project, providing essential supplies like backpacks and stationery. <\/p>\n

Following the announcement, Danielle, April, and Chris Suchan of News 4 made live phone calls to each winner to congratulate them and explain that follow-up emails regarding prize redemption and photo opportunities would be sent within the next few days.<\/p>\n
