Camelot Global Announces Annual Lottery Walk for Charity

Camelot Global Announces Annual Lottery Walk for Charity 

First Annual Event Highlights Lotteries’ Community Spirit 

CHICAGO, IL --- October 5, 2018 – After hosting its first-ever Camelot Walk for Charity at the National Association of State and Provincial Lotteries 2018 conference in Cleveland, Ohio last week, Camelot Global today announced that the charity walk will become an annual event.  

 In the spirit of giving back to community and starting the day with colleagues energized for success, last Wednesday morning Camelot Global hosted the inaugural walk for charity. Camelot pledged to donate to Girls with Sole $100 for each conference attendee who joined the walk. Girls with Sole is a Cleveland-based charity that uses free fitness and wellness programs to empower the minds, bodies and souls of at-risk girls. 

"I know how empowering sport can be - even if you have to get out of bed and walk in the wind and the rain like the conference attendees did last week," said Liz Ferro, Girls with Sole Founder. "And I'm glad they did to help me support all the girls taking part in Girls with Sole." 

Camelot raised $2,000 for the organization, and lottery association president Charlie McIntyre, Executive Director of the New Hampshire lottery, pledged an additional $500 in support.

 “State lotteries help fund the communities we live and work in, and creating this annual  event is another way Camelot can give back and support local communities,” said Camelot CEO Wayne Pickup. “As an industry, we are all proud of the impact lotteries have – the annual Camelot Walk for Charity is a celebration of that.”

 NASPL is the National Association of State and Provincial Lotteries, and its annual  conference brings together lottery directors, senior staff and many suppliers involved in the lottery industry in North America. The 2018 conference was focused on the future of lotteries, from understanding today’s consumer, to cashless transactions and advanced analytics.

 “As a leading provider of lottery solutions that drive lottery growth across retail and digital, and create a great customer experience, the conference was a great opportunity to engage in meaningful dialog on the future of our industry,” said Mr. Pickup. “We’re already looking forward to next year in Little Rock, Arkansas.”
