Who Benefits

ABCs to Possibilities

Supporting the pursuit of dreams through college and career training.

Making the smart play

With the support of our players and partners, we were able to contribute over $253 million last year for initiatives that enrich our communities statewide. These funds support early childhood education, vocational excellence programs, economic development, responsible gambling, and more. In partnership with WSAC, we provided more than $140 million towards increased student success, including financial aid to 29,500 college students and apprentices. We’re proud to make a positive difference in the lives of people across the state, and strive to continue to benefit Washington into the future.
