CHICAGO – As Illinois continues to lead the Midwest in vaccinating its residents, Gov. J-B Pritzker has announced a new $10 million “All In for the Win” promotion that will reward vaccinated Illinoisans by automatically entering them into a series of cash and scholarship lotteries with prizes up to $1 million.
More than 70% of Illinois adults have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, according to the CDC, making Illinois the first state in the Midwest to reach President Biden’s goal.
“All In For The Win is yet another way we’re working to ensure every single resident is protected from COVID-19, and especially, this virus’ more dangerous variants,” Pritzker said.
All In for the Win offers $7 million in cash prizes to vaccinated adults, ranging from $100,000 to $1 million, and $3 million in scholarship awards to vaccinated youth, held in Bright Start 529 College Savings Plan.
Residents who received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in Illinois are automatically entered into the lotteries. There are no sign ups, no forms, and no lines to wait in.
The first drawing will take place on Thursday, July 8, and the promotion will run through Thursday, August 26, with a series of drawings for 43 cash prizes — including three million-dollar jackpots — and 20 scholarship awards.
The grand finale — which includes two million-dollar cash prizes and seventeen scholarship awards – will be drawn on August 26.
