Florida Lottery: How One Lucky Winner Scooped Up a $2 Million Jackpot

The Florida Lottery is a state-operated lottery system that offers various games of chance to legal residents of Florida. Established in 1987, the Florida Lottery is overseen by the Florida Lottery Department, a state agency responsible for its operations, security, and integrity. The primary purpose of the Florida Lottery is to generate revenue for the state’s Educational Enhancement Trust Fund (EETF), which provides funding for educational programs and initiatives across Florida. Since its inception, the lottery has contributed billions of dollars to support public education, from pre-kindergarten through college and university levels.
