The Virginia Lottery has a long legacy of visionary leadership that continues with Kevin Hall, our Executive Director appointed by Governor Ralph Northam, and the Virginia Lottery Board, which consists of Virginia citizens and residents also appointed by the governor. Together, they ensure that integrity, innovation and fun are at the heart of every choice, every game and every player experience.

You might not think of Lottery games as team sports, but teamwork is the foundation of the Virginia Lottery. Teamwork has helped the Lottery and its retailer partners raise more than $10 billion for Virginia's K-12 public schools since 1999.

This aspect of the Lottery’s work includes regulation, licensing, auditing and compliance for gaming operators, equipment manufacturers and distributors, suppliers and employees.

The Lottery welcomes the interest of all vendors in supplying goods and services, and the Lottery conducts a fair and impartial procurement process when choosing partners. The Lottery uses competition to the maximum feasible degree.
