Special to the WJH ATLANTA — The Georgia Lottery announced last week the launch of Georgia Millionaire, a first-of-its-kind scratcher that will see three lucky players ring in the New Year as new millionaires.
Georgia Millionaire features $10,000 instant cash prizes, plus a special second-chance drawing where three players will each win $1 million as the New Year’s Eve ball drops to welcome 2026.
“Georgia Millionaire is an exciting new way for our players to win big, and we are thrilled to celebrate the New Year by creating three new millionaires in Georgia,” Georgia Lottery Corp. President and CEO Gretchen Corbin said. “Every Georgia Millionaire ticket purchased supports our mission to maximize revenues for Georgia Lottery-funded HOPE and Pre-K, benefiting students and families across our state.”
Players can purchase Georgia Millionaire tickets at Georgia Lottery retailers statewide For a chance to win one of the $1 million prizes, enter non-winning Georgia Millionaire tickets at Second-ChanceGA.com.
On New Year’s Day, the lucky winners will be posted at galottery.com.
Since its first year, the Georgia Lottery Corp. has returned more than $29.8 billion to the state of Georgia for education. All Georgia Lottery profits go to pay for specific educational programs.
