- Parks & Community Development – Maintaining parks, beaches, and recreational areas.

Over the past 50 years, the Delaware Lottery has contributed more than $6 billion to the General Fund. In the last fiscal year alone (2024-2025), the lottery added $239.6 million to state funding, making it Delaware's 5th largest source of revenue.
Additionally, the lottery sets aside over $1 million annually for education and prevention programs focused on responsible gaming, ensuring players stay informed about safe lottery participation.
