Plenty of us hopefuls will be buying a EuroMillions ticket today, but there’s something very special about this lottery draw in particular.

Leading online lottery betting company – Lottoland – have announced that they will donate 100 percent of ALL sales proceeds from tonight’s mega €174 million Rollover Jackpot to the volunteer-led Irish Red Cross.

The Irish Red Cross provides much needed help and services for some of the most vulnerable sections of society, here and abroad, AND they have approximately 2000 uniformed members who provide first aid services at major events (like Longitude and Electric Picnic) all over Ireland.

This EuroMillions draw Lottoland is giving us the ultimate chance to help. The money we spend will go directly to the Irish Red Cross AND we ourselves have a chance of nabbing that enormous, life-changing record win too!


The funds hoping to be accumulated (up to an estimated €50,000 over the 12-month partnership) will fund the digitisation of the Irish Red Cross’ 130 emergency ambulances. This is expected to save each ambulance crew 1.5 hours per day and a HUGE 61,000 hours a year. Just think of all the extra terrific help they can provide with this one game-changing investment.

Lottoland’s Irish Country Manager Graham Ross said;

“We are delighted to be partnering with the Irish Red Cross, who do so much for medical care, the elderly and disaster relief at home and abroad.

“In working together to plan the partnership projects, we’ve learned so much about the incredible work they do, particularly their huge volunteer base who give their time so selflessly for those less fortunate.”

The donation was also welcomed by Irish Red Cross’ National Director of Units, Tony Lawlor.

“The new tablet devices will greatly enhance the ability of Irish Red Cross volunteers on local event ambulance cover nationwide to report on patient care securely and in real time.

“Not only that, but the devices will allow us record vehicle pre-event checks, log volunteer hours and confirm crew cover so this valuable sponsorship will really make a difference to the quality of event cover and reporting that the Irish Red Cross provides in future.”
