    Hi, I would like to know just how much of each dollar goes to our veterns, I am very glad to see this lottery if a good sum of each dollar goes to support our vets. I have a limited monthly income because I am on SS but I have always wanted some way to donate to our vets. I don't give a flying fig bar if I win. As a matter fact I don't like gambiling.
