Print | Email  

BOSTON — Vaccinated residents can begin registering to win a $1 million on July 1. 
 
The Baker-Polito administration and the State Lottery announced registration details on Tuesday for the Massachusetts VaxMillions Giveaway.
 
Massachusetts residents 18 years of age and older who have received two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, will have a chance to win one of five, $1 million cash prizes. Residents between 12-17 years of age who are fully vaccinated prior to each drawing may enter for the chance to win one of five $300,000 scholarship grants.
 
Residents who do not have access to the internet or require assistance, a call center will be available to assist with registration beginning July 1. The call center can be reached by calling 2-1-1 during the below hours:
  • Monday-Thursday: 8:30 to 6
  • Friday: 8:30 to 5
  • Saturday-Sunday: 9 to 2
Live call center workers will be available in English and Spanish, and 100 additional languages will be available through translators.
 
VaxMillions Giveaway Drawings will be held once a week for five weeks beginning Monday, July 26, and continuing every Monday through Aug. 23. The first drawing for the giveaway will occur on July 26, with registration for that week's drawing closing on Thursday, July 22. Winners will be announced later in the week following each drawing.
 
Residents are reminded that they have time to get fully vaccinated in order to enter the drawings. An entry before one of the weekly entry deadlines makes you eligible for all of the weekly drawings that take place after you register. 
 
The full schedule of drawing and announcement dates is below. Residents are reminded that some COVID-19 vaccines require two doses, and they must receive all doses before entering the drawing. 
 
There are more than 900 vaccination locations across the commonwealth, with appointments and walk-ins widely available. Residents seeking a vaccine can visit mass.gov/COVIDVaccine to find a vaccine location that is convenient for them.

The commonwealth launched the Massachusetts VaxMillions giveaway as one of many strategies to increase awareness of the availability and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines and encourage residents to get vaccinated to keep themselves, their families and their communities safe.
