Casino Moose Jaw employees are opening their hearts, cupboards and wallets to ensure that families in Moose Jaw have a happy holiday season.
Security employees at Casino Moose Jaw have organized a series of fundraisers and have raised more than $1,100 for the local Salvation Army ‘Adopt-a-Family' program. Sask Gaming, which operates Casino Moose Jaw and Casino Regina, will support employee efforts with a $500 contribution through its Community Giving Program. With the funds raised, employees purchase food and small gifts for children, then assemble and deliver the hampers to the local Salvation Army in time for Christmas.
"The holidays seem to bring out the best in people, and I'm pleased that Casino Moose Jaw employees are reaching out to spread some holiday cheer in their community," Minister responsible for the Saskatchewan Gaming Corporation Ken Cheveldayoff said. "Congratulations to Casino Moose Jaw for helping to make the season brighter for families in their community."
Sask Gaming is proud to support community groups and non-profit organizations that are making life better for Saskatchewan people. In 2011, Sask Gaming will provide more than $750,000 in community giving and sponsorships.
