An Act amending the act of July 2, 2019 (P.L.366, No.56), known as the Sports Raffle Charities Act, further providing for athletic event drawing.
SB 330 amends Pennsylvania's Sports Raffle Charities Act to change how funds from athletic event drawings are distributed. It requires 50% of ticket sales to go directly to designated charities within seven days, while 5% must fund fire department and emergency medical services grants through the Office of State Fire Commissioner. Nonprofit organizations running these raffles must annually report total ticket sales, charity donations, and grant funds to the State Treasurer by September 30. These reports are shared with state legislative committees overseeing appropriations and emergency services. The bill directly affects nonprofits conducting athletic raffles and the fire/emergency grant programs funded by the 5% allocation.
