DraftKings has declared it is “reinforcing its commitment to responsible gaming” with a series of new initiatives to coincide with Problem Gambling Awareness Month (PGAM).
Marking the first anniversary of its My Stat Sheet tool, the company is renewing its State Council Funding Programme and launching a national advertising campaign to raise awareness for responsible play.
"At DraftKings, Responsible Gaming is fundamental to our mission, and we are committed to making tools, resources, and education available to all our players to help them play responsibly," said Lori Kalani, chief responsible gaming officer at DraftKings.
"Through initiatives like My Stat Sheet, which provides players with their personalized play data, and our new national awareness campaign, we’re reinforcing the importance of responsible play. Additionally, with the renewal of our State Council Funding Programme, we’re continuing to support organisations that expand access to resources and education for players, their families and communities."
Originally launched in 2022, the DraftKings State Council Funding Programme has provided over US$2m to state councils and affiliates of the National Council on Problem Gambling to support educational campaigns, training programs and resources nationwide. In 2025, the company will distribute over $500,000 to 34 US state problem gambling councils, including those in states where it does not operate.
