Lottery.com celebrates World Food Day by reaffirming its pledge to ending world hunger

AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lottery.com commemorates World Food Day by reiterating their commitment to ending world hunger. World Food Day is celebrated every year around the world on October 16 in honor of the date of the founding of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 1945.

The global lottery and charitable impact firm intends to shortly announce its first major global game to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals, beginning with SDG #2: "End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture."

Last month, Lottery.com formally adopted the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact. The platform has partnered with multiple United Nations agencies, celebrities and influencers in anticipation of this announcement to raise significant funds for the world's leading NGOs in the fight against hunger.  

Remarking on World Food Day, CEO Tony DiMatteo said, "Lottery.com is excited to join a wave of businesses, entrepreneurs, and passionate organizations in striving towards meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals, starting with the commitment to ending hunger by 2030. Through creativity and innovation, these goals are well within our reach as a global collaborative endeavor. We continue to operate by our mantra of "doing well, by doing good," and look forward to exploring new ways of broadening the horizons of charitable impact worldwide."

In addition to its recent commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the platform has begun leveraging blockchain's transparency and other advantages, such as the democratization of the capital raise process by undertaking a Security Token Offering (STO) with a focus on social impact. In doing so, they are revolutionizing fundraising models into a platform capable of raising billions for charities and humanitarian needs.
