whERE ThE MONEy GOESSince 1975, we’ve awarded approximately $23.8 billion in lottery prizes. However, millions of Ontarians win in so many other ways every day:Gaming Proceeds – Revenues generated by OLG’s Lotteries, Casinos, Slots and Resort Casinos support health care, education, amateur sport, recreational and cultural activities and community-based programs across Ontario. In our 2007/2008 fiscal year, more than $1.8 billion was generated for these purposes.Retailer Commissions – Annually, over $193.1 million is returned to the economy through commissions and bonuses to more than 10,400 lottery retailers. Lottery Proceeds – More than 50 per cent of our lottery revenue goes back to the people of Ontario in the form of prizes.Ontario Trillium Foundation Grants – Revenue from Ontario’s casinos supports a $100 million annual allocation to the Ontario Trillium Foundation to help build healthy and vibrant communities. Every year, this money is made available by the Foundation as grants to more than 1,500 charity and not-for-profit groups across the province. For more information,visit www.trilliumfoundation.org.

AMBER ALERTIn partnership with the Ontario Provincial Police and the Ontario Association of Broadcasters, OLG is proud to carryOntario Amber Alert messages with details of the alert oncustomer-facing video screens at more than 8,800 lotteryterminal locations across the province and at our PrizeCentre in Toronto.

Police issue an Amber Alert in the case of a confirmedinstance of child abduction, when they believe that animmediate broadcast alert will help locate the child.
