The Lott in the community
Giving back to Australian communities is in our blood here at The Lott.
Over the years, if you’ve played our lottery games, you’ve helped contribute to your local community – from funding the building of hospitals to assisting disaster recovery efforts.
And while we all love a win, there’s something we love even more, and that’s giving back to our communities.
OUR COMMUNITY PILLARS
Health
For more than a century, we’ve supported important health initiatives, like funding the construction of new hospitals and helping to deliver vital medical equipment. We are proud to continue this tradition today and into the future.
Research
From ground-breaking treatments to addressing climate change, we support several research programs dedicated to tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges.
Education
We fund several important education initiatives designed to help young Australians, such as those dedicated to keeping kids safe and increasing education in remote communities.
Environment and natural disasters
From disaster relief operations to preserving Australian wildlife, we’re committed to working with organisations devoted to looking after our environment.
Arts and culture
We’re honoured to invest in several initiatives that promote, develop and sustain Australia’s arts and cultural heritage.
