The Maine Outdoor Heritage Fund conserves wildlife and open spaces through the sale of instant, scratch lottery tickets. With proceeds from ticket sales, grants are awarded twice a year, totaling approximately $700,000 annually.
The seven-member Maine Outdoor Heritage Fund Board chooses projects in four categories that promote recreation as well as conservation of Maine's special places, endangered species and important fish and wildlife habitat.
The Maine Outdoor Heritage Fund (MOHF) has been helping to fund critical conservation and wildlife projects throughout the state since it was created by the Maine Legislature in 1996, in response to a grassroots effort from environmental and sportsman’s groups.
Supported through proceeds from the Maine Outdoor Heritage Lottery Ticket, MOHF finds its funds lagging while grant proposals continue to pour in.
Please help us spread the word about the MOHF scratch lottery ticket. The more tickets that are sold, the more projects can be funded!
Only the MOHF lottery ticket helps fund projects in our state to secure Maine's outdoor heritage for future generations.

And if you don't find it in your favorite store, please ASK the owner or manager to carry the MOHF lottery ticket.
