Becoming involved in the United Kingdom's lottery
National lotteries like the United Kingdom's allow citizens to participate in raising funds for community causes in return for the opportunity to win cash prizes. The focus, however, tends to be on the winnings rather than the giving. Take a moment to learn who is benefiting from the UK National Lottery.
28 per cent off all the money that goes into the lottery is given away to charities, totaling over 22 billion pounds so far. Most people in the United Kingdom live close to a lottery-funded amenity. Those who are chosen to receive lottery money must serve a charitable or socially beneficial function. The biggest contributor among UK lotteries is the Big Lottery Fund. It distributes most of the money raised by the lottery. There are many beneficial projects funded by the Big Lottery Fund in the fields of education, health, the environment and many others.
In addition, Good Causes have three specific categories: arts, sports and heritage. Each of these categories receives 16.67% of the Good Causes funds.
Granted by 4 national councils along with the 2 film councils, cost given here are for projects in both arts and cinema. This is like the grant to the Yorkshire Film Archive to improve the ease of access to the amateur and professional video over the internet.
Money is distributed the sport category through five lottery distribution bodies and the Big Lottery Fund. Grants can be used to buy land, for building and construction and purchasing equipment. Projects must serve the needs of the local community, and the lottery cannot be the sole source of funding. Such a project, the Inclusive Fitness Initiative, made fitness facilities accessible to tens of thousands of disabled people both in terms of facilities and service.
Since'94, the Heritage Lottery Fund has granted more than 39 billion to thousands of heritage projects. These projects are related to preserving the heritage of the United Kingdom through natural heritage, museums, buildings, language or tradition. The Archives Network - Wales received 365,000 to collect historic manuscripts, records and archives from- local governments, universities and national institutions into an online site.
Go to the Department of Culture, Media, and Sport fo a total list of projects that are funded by the lottery.
Opponents have few reasons with the truth that lottery generated money go to charity. Many claim that coloring is a contribution apposed to gambling and encouraging more to gamble. While it is true that positive causes create a powerful marketing message, these types of monies do help fund these charitable causes. - 23210
