Inclusion and accessibility to communication starts with you.

With the launch of every new lottery, Deaf Lottery has another amazing $800,000 first prize on offer. Show your support for Deaf Australians with a $2 lottery ticket for the chance to change your life and win $800,000.

Your support helps provide equal access to the Australian Deaf community through Auslan interpreters. Auslan stands for Australian Sign Language and is the language used by the Deaf community. The Deaf community use qualified Auslan interpreters to translate meaning from English to Auslan, providing access between Deaf and hearing people.

Deaf Connect & the Deaf Lottery are on a mission to provide equal access to communication and information across Australia through improving access to interpreters. We are doing this by expanding our team of interpreters, working with the government, organisations and the community to implement and advocate for the inclusion of interpreters in everyday life.

Your support to keep Deaf Australians connected changes lives.

Don’t miss the chance for it to change yours! We wish you all the very best in the draw.

Deaf Connect Chief Impact Officer, Brent Phillips says: “Our vision is to ensure Deaf and hard of hearing Australians are able to access services regardless of where they live, and benefit from our programs and projects – a wonderful example was our advocacy work with the Northern Territory Government where we secured funding to employ an interpreter in NT for the next three years, giving Deaf Territorians access to information, services and supports. We are also planning a big year of face-to-face events throughout Australia to ensure we connect with Deaf and hard of hearing Australians and deliver projects and initiatives that build the community’s capacity”.

With the Deaf Lottery being the funding arm of Deaf Connect, the funding for the establishment of the Impact team and our important work comes directly through your support of our lottery. Through your support, you are directly enabling Deaf Connect to move beyond service delivery, and take an active role in improving the lives of future generations of Deaf, deafblind and hard of hearing Australians."
