Animal Charity Lotteries To Play

By Susan Donaldson, B.A. (Hons), Animal Campaigner


There are many animal charity lotteries to play with big cash prizes that can help animals. Some of the animal charities run them through third-party lottery companies so that they can offer bigger prizes.

However, that means there are many more players, so the odds of winning are lower. Animal charity lotteries help animal rescues, sanctuaries, wildlife rehabilitation centres, and other organisations working for the good of animals.

Here are a few of the lotteries you can help animal charities by playing.




The Animal Sanctuary Lottery

The Animal Sanctuary Lottery was started by an animal sanctuary who realised that animal sanctuaries around the world needed financial help to keep on helping animals.

Jacobs Ridge Animal Sanctuary, in Spain, who run the lottery, are not a third-party lottery management company. Such companies, who you may have seen running some animal charity lotteries, take fees.

The great news is that 25% of funds raised by the Animal Sanctuary Lottery are set aside for prize money, and the remaining 75% of funds go directly to the animal sanctuaries who need it.

If you know of any animal sanctuary that could benefit from being part of this lottery, encourage them to apply. Applications from any animal sanctuaries are accepted.

Not only that, but they offer support to other sanctuaries by putting specialists, willing to donate their time and expertise, in touch with them. This could be to give legal, financial or veterinary advice.

You can enter the lottery regularly here. I have just done so because I think it sounds great.

If you have any questions, you can contact the Animal Sanctuary Lottery here: [email protected]

Unity Lottery

Many animal charities, large and small, offer the chance to win big cash prizes because their animal charity lotteries are run through third-party lottery company, Unity.

For instance, the World Animal Protection Lottery offers the chance to win £25,000 every week. They receive 50p from every entry, which is 100% of the profits. The remaining 50p goes towards prize funds and the cost of lottery administration by the third-party lottery company. WAP say it is an extremely cost-effective way for them to raise funds for animals.

You can find many other animal charity lotteries run through Unity. If you know of any animal charities who could be helped by being part of this, send them to Sterling Lotteries. No cause is too large or small.

Other Online Fundraising Games To Help Animals

There are many small – and often forgotten – animal rescues that run fundraising events on Facebook. Smaller prizes are offered than with the larger lotteries, but you have bigger odds of winning.

They are usually UK-based, or in Europe. They post their fundraising events in two Facebook groups:

  • Animal Rescue Fundraising Events Now On – This has all different animal rescue fundraising events in, including raffles, cash draws, online dog shows, photo competitions, auctions, buy it now sales, scratch cards competitions, and more.
  • Auctions And Sales ONLY: To Help Animals – As the name of this group suggests, the fundraising events to help animals are limited to auctions and sales only.
