In August 2005, Gov. Mike Easley signed into law the North Carolina State Lottery Act (H. 1023) and the 2005 Appropriations Act (S. 622) which established the North Carolina Education Lottery.

The act created the 9-member North Carolina Lottery Commission to initiate, supervise, and administer the education lottery. The Commission was appointed in September 2005, with Dr. Charles Sanders of Durham as its first chair and its initial meeting was held on October 6, 2005. On November 17, 2005, the Commission hired Thomas N. Shaheen as Executive Director. Shaheen started work on December 5, 2005. Mr. Shaheen, along with his staff will be responsible for the administrative management and daily operations of the Commission. Key staff members and their areas of responsibility include:

Thomas Shaheen - Executive Director
Alice Garland - Deputy Executive Director, Legislative/Corporate Communications
Sam Hammett - Deputy Executive Director, Sales
Robin Diehl - Deputy Executive Director, Finance/Administration
Deborah Doty - Deputy Executive Director of MIS and Gaming Systems
Lou Ann Russell - Deputy Executive Director, Marketing/Advertising

100 percent of the net proceeds of the North Carolina Education Lottery will go to education expenses, including reduced class size in early grades, academic prekindergarten programs, school construction, and scholarships for needy college and university students.
