The Louisiana Lottery
Since its founding in 1991, the Louisiana Lottery has focused on maximizing revenue for the state while operating with integrity and transparency. A significant portion of its proceeds supports the Minimum Foundation Program, which funds K–12 public education across Louisiana. Recently, the Lottery reached a major milestone, contributing $5 billion to the MFP, reinforcing its long-standing impact on students and schools statewide.
Its partnership with Louisiana Public Broadcasting reflects a shared commitment to education, storytelling, and public service. LPB’s programming enriches communities through trusted journalism, cultural storytelling, and educational content for all ages.
The Lottery’s sponsorship of the 2026 Louisiana Legends Gala is a natural extension of this mission, celebrating organizations that invest in Louisiana’s future.
