Empowering Student Success Across Florida
The Florida Lottery Strategic Partnerships Team collaborates with schools, nonprofits, community organizations, colleges and universities statewide to expand awareness of the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program and connect students and families with resources that support college and career success.
Informing, educating, and inspiring students across Florida
We establish partnerships with organizations that promote Bright Futures awareness and educational opportunities for Florida students.
We offer Bright Futures presentations and workshops in English and Spanish to help students, families, and educators understand scholarship opportunities, college readiness, and financial aid resources.
We provide promotional merchandise and educational resources through informational displays (including table/chair accommodation, when applicable).

Through a partnership with the Consortium of Florida Education Foundations, the Lottery is lighting the way for thousands of students to earn a Bright Futures Scholarship through the Lighting the Way to a Bright Future Project.
The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project is an in-school dropout prevention and mentoring program for young boys in Miami-Dade, Pinellas, Duval, and Broward Counties. The program has received national recognition since its inception in 1993 and has awarded approximately $10 million in scholarships.
Spearheaded by the College Football Playoff National Championship Game (CFPNCG) Host Committee and College Football Playoff (CFP) Foundation, this program supports school redesign through the creation of innovation spaces.
The Lottery is an ongoing partner of the Pace Center for Girls, which provides free year-round middle and high school academics, case management, counseling, and life skills development to girls in a safe environment.
