Casinos’ Nonprofit Organizations Provide Millions in Grants Annually<br />

Each of the fourteen counties with a casino has a nonprofit license holder or license sponsor that serves as a non-profit granting organization to reinvest gaming dollars contributed for numerous charitable<br />

and civic needs. Thousands of grant applications are received each year, and millions of dollars are given annually to a diversity of community and charitable causes, including: the United Way, Red Cross,<br />

Make-A-Wish, life-saving equipment for fire and ambulance services, laptops for schools, funding for day care and community centers, historic preservation, churches and much more.<br />
