For more than 50 years, a separate organisation called Everton FC Lotteries has been running a host of ‘non-commercial society lotteries’, raffles and prizes of some form to raise funds for various strands of the Club.
In the beginning, the monies were originally used to help with the upkeep of the stadium and fund youth development, but more recently they are used primarily to support the Club’s official charity, Everton in the Community (EitC).
Every penny after payment of prizes and costs now goes towards EitC and this money has been crucial over the last few years in funding some of the EitC’s most important and successful projects.
