Why I Gave My Prize to Charities
My story began a few years back, in all honesty I was looking to go overseas as I have never really left home land. I am the type of person that just always enters competitions. I like the enjoyment when they get back to me but most times this does not end up going much further.
Well I finally got a bit of luck after years of playing and got put into the final draw to win tickets on jamaica holidays. As the weeks went by the draw date got closer and closer I started to feel a bit nervous as the three finalists had to give a speech on why they deserved to win. I was so caught up in trying to think of something good to say, why do I deserve to win when there are so many better people around.
The day finally came around and there were a selection of three judges in a medium sized room the 2 before me gave excellent speeches, but in some ways you could tell that they were not being honest at all. So it was my turn, they asked me the question “So why do you deserve to win the holiday”, I instantly replied “I don’t”, they all glanced at me very awkwardly. I then proceeded with my planned speech and said that there were people that deserved this much more than I did. So if I did win it I would be giving it to charity.
The judging selection then went away and stood all of us up, to my suprise they announced me as the winner, they said I had a lot of admiration and instead of giving me two tickets they were going to give four. Two for charity and two for me, It just goes to show that being the nice guy pays off, the destination and st Lucia resorts were absolutely amazing.
For great Luxury Holidays and Caribbean Holidays
