About Us

Our mission at the Kentucky Lottery is clear – we fuel imagination and fund education for all Kentuckians. This is done thru lottery proceeds funding college scholarship and grant programs with over $3.3 billion in funding since 1999, including every dime ever awarded in the popular KEES Scholarship program.

But beyond this, we also work to enrich the lives of all Kentuckians through:

• Principles – Maintaining the highest levels of integrity and social responsibility. 
• Products – Offering unique and entertaining products whenever and wherever people want to play.
• Players – Creating fun experiences with player centric focus.
• Proceeds – Delivering maximum return to the Commonwealth to fund beneficiary programs.
• People – Building a great place for people to work to inspire creativity, innovation and collaboration. 
• Partners – Cultivating a winning network of partners to help us develop, deliver and maintain the best products.
