OLG’S NEW LIMITED-EDITION QUEST FOR GOLD INSTANT GAME FEATURES ONTARIO AMATEUR ATHLETES

TORONTO, ON – Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation’s (OLG’s) new $2 INSTANT QUEST FOR GOLD game is here just in time for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games!

Ontario’s Quest for Gold program supports high-performance amateur athletes, easing the financial burden of training and living expenses, enabling them to pursue their Olympic and Paralympic dreams.

OLG is proud to be a longstanding supporter of amateur athletes in Ontario. This year, the Quest for Gold tickets feature seven Ontario amateur athletes who have received Quest for Gold funding during their careers:

  • Mariam Abdul-Rashid, Oshawa (Athletics)
  • Khamica Bingham, Caledon (Athletics)
  • Charlotte Bolton, Tillsonburg (Para Athletics)
  • Kyra Constantine, Brampton (Athletics)
  • Danny Demyanenko, Toronto (Volleyball)
  • Gabriel Ferron-Bouius, Ottawa (Paralympic Canoe & Sprint Kayak)
  • Ydris Hunter, Ottawa (Canoe, Sprint Kayak)

 

You can get to know each athlete here.

Every play with OLG is a winning one because 100 per cent of OLG’s profits support key government priorities – including support for amateur athletes. With each purchase of this limited-edition INSTANT lottery game, Ontarians also have a chance to win one of four top prizes of $35,000.

“OLG remains dedicated to supporting and promoting Ontario’s Quest for Gold athletes. This year’s $2 INSTANT QUEST FOR GOLD game highlights seven of Ontario’s high-performance athletes, including Olympians and Paralympians whose journeys have been made possible with help from Quest for Gold funding,” says Nancy Kennedy, OLG’s Chief Lottery and Customer Officer. “This is just one of the many ways OLG champions amateur sport in Ontario.”
