Gov. Mike Dunleavy announced the winners of the fourth annual Education Raffle on Wednesday from Harborview Elementary School in Juneau.
Alaskans enter the raffle by donating a portion of their Endowment Fund dividends. Half of the amount donated goes directly to the schools in the form of grants. One quarter goes to the education endowment fund.
This year, 8,740 people entered the lottery, giving $437,000 to public education and $218,500 to the endowment fund.
The four winners were Hannah Palmer, John Erickson, Charles Green and Suzanne Taylor. Their prizes range from $7,045.81 to $56,366.49.
