California Lottery - Play, Win and Contribute
California Lottery, sometime addressed as California State Lottery started in 1985. Lottery was legalised in California in the year 1984 after the Californian voters came together to vote the amendment to pass.
The motive behind California Lottery is to contribute money to school without having to increase taxes. It was agreed that at least 34% of the lottery.s revenue should be provided for education in order to add to California government.s existing funds. It was also assured that 50% of the lottery.s revenue would be provided as prizes. This means that a total of 84% is given back to the public. The remaining 16% of California Lottery revenue can be used towards internal needs.
This has subsequently changed to 87% and 13% respectively of California Lottery revenue.
The amount for each prize in California Lottery is determined by pari-mutuel method. Only people above the age of 18 are sold tickets or are permitted to claim prize money against the winning tickets.
California Lottery is very transparent on its objective of funding schools and colleges. With the change in the funding procedure in April 2010, there was an increase in sales which helped them to earn more money and bestow funds to schools in the form of prizes and contributions. California Lottery solemnizes its assurance in maximising funds to education by enhancing the industry. California schools get an amount of $1 billion of funds from lottery every year.
