LOTTO.COM™ JOINS 2024 GIFT RESPONSIBLY CAMPAIGN TO RAISE AWARENESS OF YOUTH GAMBLING RISKS AND ENCOURAGE RESPONSIBLE GAMING
JERSEY CITY, N.J., December 23, 2024 – Lotto.com, the nation's first lottery platform to digitally deliver official state lottery draw games and scratch tickets, is proud to announce its participation in the 2024 Gift Responsibly Campaign, joining lotteries and community organizations to raise awareness about the risks of youth gambling and promote responsible gaming practices for those of legal age.
The campaign, presented by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and supported by North American Association of State & Provincial Lotteries (NASPL), comes at the peak of gift-giving season and serves as an important reminder about the dangers of buying lottery tickets for children.

"Our commitment is rooted in empowering individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the lottery landscape responsibly.
