new vaccine lottery winners august 16
By Kenzie Dillow

(WSIL) -- The sixth and final $100,000 Monday drawing as part of the state’s ‘All In for the Win� vaccine lottery has taken place, and three lucky winners have been chosen.

The Illinois Department of Public Health will be notifying winners by phone or email starting this afternoon. The winners of the August 16th drawing are from the following locations across Illinois:

  • $100,000 cash prize: Chicago
  • $100,000 cash prize: St. Charles
  • $100,000 cash prize: Chicago 

Winners will have seven days to securely complete, sign and send the authorization form to IDPH to accept their prizes. The Illinois Lottery will then guide winners through the claims process. Winners will be announced eight days after each draw unless they choose to remain anonymous.

The last day to get your shot for a shot at winning is August 18, when IDPH will take the final tally of vaccinated residents and automatically enter them into lotteries for two $1 million cash prizes for adults and 17 scholarships for kids.

Last Monday, people from each region of the state, including Williamson and Wayne Counties, were selected to win $100K.
