With the observance of Veterans Day on Nov. 11, it’s a time for each of us to honor and remember the service of our nation’s veterans. Here at the Iowa Lottery, this is also a time that we’re especially thankful and proud of the proceeds we’ve been able to raise to help Iowa veterans and their families.
This week, we made the lottery’s $2.5 million annual transfer to the Veterans Trust Fund for the current fiscal year. And that brings the grand total that we’ve raised for the cause to more than $22 million. Today, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of all Iowa Lottery games is dedicated to the Veterans Trust Fund.
If you’re looking for more information about the Trust Fund or how to apply for assistance from it, visit the Iowa Department of Veterans Affairs website. Click on the “Benefits” tab at the top of that page to learn more.
