Everyone wins when they play Split the Pot Lottery! This fun and innovative lottery raises funds for participating British Columbia charity foundations. How? Participants have a say. Proceeds from every ticket sold can either be split among participating charities or directed to a participating charity of your choice. This is not just a lottery; it is a movement. By joining forces, charities across the province can create a recurring and predictable source of revenue.
It’s what we call a win-win-win as British Columbians and lucky players all benefit when we come together and play Split the Pot.
