“We’re proud to fund improvements to roads and schools — priorities that affect every Mississippian,” Mississippi Lottery Corporation President Jeff Hewitt said. “These transfers demonstrate the Lottery’s commitment to supporting Mississippi’s long-term growth and success.”
The Lottery transferred $125,102,374.80 to the state in Fiscal Year 2024, meaning the total transfer for 2025 dropped by more than $12 million.
