About the Oklahoma Lottery
The Oklahoma Lottery was launched following a public vote in 2005 to create new revenue to support Oklahoma education and more specifically to support Oklahoma students and teachers. Since its launch, the Lottery has generated more than $1.05 billion in funds that are deposited monthly into the Oklahoma Education Lottery Trust Fund.
