Local nonprofit organizations received a big boost from Legends Casino this week as the casino presented over $1 million in donations to various charitable organizations in the community. The generous contributions were made possible through the Legends Cares program, which aims to support organizations that focus on education, health, and social services in the region.
A ceremony was held at the casino where representatives from the nonprofit organizations gathered to receive the donations. Among the recipients were local schools, shelters, food banks, and health clinics, all of which rely on donations to continue their important work in the community.
“We are thrilled to be able to support these incredible organizations that are making a real difference in the lives of others,” said Legends Casino CEO, John Swett. “Our community is stronger when we all come together to support each other, and we are proud to be able to do our part in helping those in need.”
One of the recipients of the donations was the local Boys and Girls Club, which provides after-school programs and mentoring for at-risk youth in the area. The organization received $50,000 from Legends Casino, which will help fund educational programs and provide meals for children in need.
“We are so grateful for this donation from Legends Casino,” said the executive director of the Boys and Girls Club. “It will allow us to continue serving the youth in our community and make a positive impact on their lives.”
In addition to the monetary donations, Legends Casino also announced that they will be hosting a series of fundraising events throughout the year to continue supporting local nonprofits. These events will include charity poker tournaments, benefit concerts, and silent auctions, all aimed at raising funds for organizations in need.
The Legends Cares program has been a cornerstone of the casino’s community outreach efforts for years, and the latest donations bring the total amount given to local nonprofits to over $5 million. The casino is committed to continuing its support for organizations that make a difference in the community and is proud to be a partner in their important work.
As the ceremony came to a close, representatives from the nonprofit organizations expressed their gratitude for the support from Legends Casino and its commitment to giving back to the community. The donations will help these organizations continue their vital work and make a positive impact on the lives of those they serve.
In a time when support for nonprofits is more important than ever, the generosity of Legends Casino is a shining example of how businesses can make a meaningful difference in the community. The donations will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on the organizations and the individuals they serve, ensuring a brighter future for all.
