An expected $22 million to go back to the WA community.

Lotterywest is the only State Government owned and operated lottery in Australia, where all the profits are returned to the WA community.

 

As our Powerball game continued to jackpot over the last 7 weeks, so have our contributions to the WA community, helping us achieve our purpose of building a better WA.

 

Over the last 7 weeks of Powerball’s jackpot run, over $22 million is expected to go back to the WA community as part of the Lotterywest grants program. 

 

Thanks to you for playing in a Powerball jackpot draw over the last 7 weeks, you have been part of the ripple effect, helping Lotterywest’s purpose of building a better WA together.

 

In the financial year 2020-2021, a record amount of $864.9 million was given back to the WA community in prizes and grants. Of this, there were a total of 593 grants given to 480 West Australian not-for-profits and local governments.

 

Thanks for playing, WA.
