Yep. Don't mind doing it. Part of the money collected for the ticket is put into an education fund (when I was in TN) and it paid students $4000/year for secondary education if they maintained their grades. Great program. My child received WAY more $$$ than I've spent on tickets or will spend in my lifetime. Saved me a lot of money on their education.

I keep buying occasionally and assume it is a donation for those good students that maintain their grades to qualify. If I win anything then that is payback for doing a good deed.
