Michigan Lottery

The Michigan Lottery was founded in 1972 to provide entertaining games of chance which deliver revenue to the state School Aid Fund. Today, the Michigan Lottery has a retail network of more than 10,500 local businesses offering our portfolio of products. About 97 cents of every dollar spent on Lottery tickets is returned to the state in the form of contributions to the state School Aid Fund, prizes to players and commissions to vendors and retailers. In the 2021 fiscal year, the Lottery provided more than $1.4 billion for Michigan's public schools, its seventh record contribution. Since it began in 1972, the Lottery has contributed more than $26 billion to support public education in Michigan. Learn more about the Michigan Lottery at www.michiganlottery.com.
