Illinois Veterans will get 100 percent of the net proceeds from a special state lottery game. The new Stars and Stripes scratch-off tickets will be on sale for about six months as part of the Veterans' Cash program. The state expects to raise more than $1 million from the new lottery tickets. For more information, including how to apply for an Illinois Veterans Cash Grant, visit the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs website.
