    I can't enter the contest, being an Our Canada editor, but it's nice to dream! So, I think I would put that money towards visiting my new family in Mexico (in-laws) who I have yet to meet face to face (so far we've only chatted, in my very poor Spanish, via Skype!)!

    I would put the money towards paying off a debt with a needy family.

    Our Church is really struggling financially and I would give them a "collection boost". I also have a strong connection to the Inn of the Good Shepherd and I would donate that group also.... I really don't need anything but would sure give to the people that need it...

    If I won $1500, I would take my family on a vacation to Disneyland!

    If I won $1500 dollars I'd give it to a missionary family from our church. Things are really tough for them right now, so much so that the husband has to come home to work to keep them going in the Phillipines. There are others we know who are in need too.....who doesn't know someone in need?
    Thanks for taking the time to read my comments!

    we would probably just put in the bank, as we have everything we need.

    If I ever won a lot of money, I would help my children and I would also donate money for the Parkinson Society as my husband has Parkinson.We both go to a support group. I find it sad to see all these people who have Parkinson. I do wish that they can find a cure. Hope one day my prayers will be answered.
