House committee hears HB 255 to create PFD-based raffle for senior services The House Community and Regional Affairs Committee held an introductory hearing Jan. 27 on HB 255, which would let Alaskans donate portions of their Permanent Fund Dividend to a senior grants raffle; the bill outlines fund structure, a 50/25/25 allocation split and an optional endowment while lawmakers pressed sponsors on capitalization and administrative costs.

Alaskans may soon have the chance to support vital senior services by donating a portion of their Permanent Fund Dividend to a new raffle initiative!
