For our community
The funds we generate through gaming is distributed to projects and organisations that enrich everyday life on the Ålands Islands. Every year the Government of Åland receives hundreds of applications for grants and loans for the funding of projects, investments, events and activities. These initiatives enrich our archipelago with sports, culture and art. They also help maintain a safe and clean environment.
