The $117 Picasso Surprise

Effort: 10 minutesA software engineer in Paris bought a single raffle ticket for about $117 and unexpectedly won an original Pablo Picasso painting worth over $1 million. The raffle, called “1 Picasso for 100 Euros,” was created to raise money for important causes like preserving historic sites, improving access to clean water, and funding Alzheimer’s research. This year alone, the event raised more than $14 million to support families affected by Alzheimer’s disease, a condition that impacts memory and thinking skills. While one person won a famous artwork, thousands of people helped support a much bigger mission.
