Positive EV Fund-raising to Break False Narratives

Join us for a unique fundraising experience where math meets mission. We're leveraging bonuses from the Virginia Lottery to create positive expected value (EV) scenarios — and turning that edge into impact by raising funds for our new venture. Light refreshments will be served, with a free pizza lunch if everything is going well.

### 🧠 How It Works:

The Virginia Lottery frequently offers promotions and bonuses (like free plays, match-back coupons, or enhanced odds) that can skew the mean in your favor — making select plays +EV.
At this event, we’ll:

• Identify bonus-backed plays with favorable odds.
• Systematically take advantage of these high-EV plays.
• Invest half of the profit into our new venture, keep half.

Think of it as a quantified giving game — we’re not gambling blindly; we’re statistically stacking the deck for good.

### 💡 Why It Matters:

• Typical lotteries are -EV (negative expected value), but promos can change that — smart players know when EV flips positive.
• By harnessing this edge collectively, we reduce variance, increase impact, and amplifying our effect every dollar spent.
• It's fun, transparent, and community-driven.
• Any losses will be refunded by our organization + $100 for participating.
