Where the Money Goes

EVERY TIME YOU PLAY THE FLORIDA LOTTERY,
IT'S A WIN FOR EDUCATION

• A portion of every Florida Lottery ticket purchased gets transferred to the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund (EETF).
• The legislature, with input from the Florida Department of Education, then determines how funds will be allocated.
• The Florida Department of Education distributes the funds to the public education system.

WHERE DOES THE REST OF THE MONEY GO?

• The majority of Florida Lottery revenue goes back into Florida's economy in the form of prizes to players.
• A portion goes to commissions and bonuses for the Lottery's more than 13,000 retailers statewide.
• The remaining 1.3% is used for operating expenses; this is among the lowest in the nation.
