FDJ United: Over €2 Million Raised Through Loto Draw for Fontainebleau Forest
FDJ United organized a Loto draw dedicated to Fontainebleau forest, affected by summer fires, and announces the continuation of its commitment to French forest massifs through its Mission Nature initiative.
A Loto Draw Dedicated to Site Restoration
The draw organized on September 23, 2026, in the continuation of the European Heritage Days, was dedicated to Fontainebleau forest. More than two million euros were raised on this occasion.
The funds collected, corresponding to the amount usually deducted by the State from bets, will be transferred to the Fondation du patrimoine and allocated to restoration projects carried out by the National Forestry Office, manager of Fontainebleau state forest. They will supplement the emergency fundraising campaign launched by the Fondation du patrimoine in July 2026.
Three Exceptional Draws and a New Mission Nature Edition
FDJ United will offer three exceptional Mission Nature Loto draws on October 19, 21 and 24, 2026, to support the restoration of forest massifs affected by fires, particularly in Gironde, Var, Drôme and Pyrénées-Orientales. This initiative is being conducted alongside the French Biodiversity Office.
A fifth edition of the Mission Nature games offering is planned for spring 2027, with a focus on restoration actions for natural areas affected by fires. According to FDJ United, this offering has raised more than 32 million euros for the French Biodiversity Office since 2023, supporting nearly 100 ecological restoration projects in mainland France and overseas territories.
