A Georgia Lottery player won $1 million playing the 2nd Edition Billionaire Club scratcher at Shell Mart, 5900 Veterans Parkway in Columbus. That player claimed their prize on April 23 and selected the lump sum cash option for $535,398.06.
As with all Georgia Lottery games, proceeds from scratchers and Diggi Games benefit education in the state of Georgia.
Since its first year, the Georgia Lottery Corp. has returned more than $30.6 billion to the state of Georgia for education. All Georgia Lottery profits go to pay for specific educational programs, including Georgia’s HOPE Scholarship Program and Georgia’s Pre-K Program. More than 2.3 million students have received HOPE, and more than 2.2 million 4-year-olds have attended the statewide, voluntary prekindergarten program.
