Postkodlotteriet
Country: Sweden
Postkodlotteriet is Sweden's largest charity lottery, where you win together with your neighbours while contributing to a better world. The entire surplus goes to more than 60 non-profit organisations that work for better conditions for people and the planet.
Postkodlotteriet distributes over one billion Swedish kronor to civil society every year, thanks to everyone who participates in the lottery. The funds are mainly un-earmarked with the aim of supporting the organisations' activities in Sweden and internationally.
The organisation itself decides how the funds are used and where the money is most useful both in the short and long term. Since its inception in Sweden in 2005, Postkodlotteriet has distributed more than SEK 17 billion to civil society, thanks to all the customers. Postkodlotteriet is today Sweden's largest private donor to the non-profit sector.
