About the South Dakota Lottery

Since 1986, the South Dakota Lottery has been a pillar of fun and funding for the state. They operate just like any other business, bringing in revenue through ticket sales and using it to cover expenses. But unlike most businesses, their profits don't go towards lining the pockets of shareholders – instead, they're directed right back to benefit South Dakota communities!

The lottery betters the state

The South Dakota Lottery offers a double win: a chance for you to earn a prize and valuable funds for the state. Nearly 95 cents of every dollar spent on tickets goes directly back to South Dakota. Here's a breakdown of how that money makes a positive impact:

  • Education: Nearly half of all Lottery funds are invested in supporting the future of South Dakota – including K-12 schools, universities, and technical institutes.
  • Natural resources: Lottery funds play a vital role in protecting and improving South Dakota's natural beauty. They help pay for rural water systems, clean drinking water projects, and recycling programs.
  • Miscellaneous programs The Lottery also supports a variety of other important initiatives. They contribute funds for road improvements, problem gambling treatment services, and other programs that enhance the quality of life for South Dakotans.

Ready to play?

Head over to the South Dakota Lottery website or your nearest retailer today to get your tickets and enter for a chance to win. Don't miss out on this opportunity to experience the thrill of NASCAR and give back to your community. Good luck!
