From 2000 to 2008, the National Sports Lottery issued 7338 million prizes.

　　Over the past 15 years, China’s sports lottery has raised a total of 81.2 billion public welfare funds for the country. According to statistics, the total amount of sports lottery public welfare funds turned over to the central government in the past 15 years has reached nearly 40 billion yuan, and the proportion of sports lottery public welfare funds used for other undertakings has accounted for half. Sports lottery is no longer a departmental lottery, but a national lottery approved by the state, issued by the department and benefited by the society. It is a channel for the state to raise funds to support the development of various social undertakings.

　　Chinese sports lottery not only raises public welfare funds for the country and society, but also brings happiness to lottery players, so that more people can experience the happiness of sports lottery. From 2000 to 2008 alone, there were 7338 grand prizes of more than one million in China. While making millionaires, sports lottery tickets are also cultivating "spiritual millionaires".

Mr. Zhao from Fengtai District of Beijing was the first grand prize winner. When he won the prize for the first time, he silently went to the west to donate money to poor primary schools.

　　When the global economic recession came in 2009, employment became the most concerned topic of the whole society. At this moment, people discovered the topic that had been neglected. As a part of social welfare undertakings, China’s sports lottery has provided more than 300,000 direct jobs for the whole society, and more than 600,000 people have been associated with it.

　　A disabled veteran in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province, became a sports lottery owner after returning to his hometown, and became a sales model in the city with good service and good faith.
