Microgaming raises £30k for charity

Company’s Gift of Giving Campaign sees six charities share the cash.

UK.- Microgaming has raised more than £30,000 via its seventh annual Gift of Giving campaign, undertaken through its staff-led CSR initiative, PlayItForward.

Six charities received funding, with the lucky organisations determined via a vote.

The charities that received the highest number of votes in each region were Save the Children (United Kingdom), WaterAid (Africa), Foodbank Lifeline Foundation (Malta), Childline (Gibraltar) and Unicef (Rest of the World), with GamCare winning the vote in the inaugural responsible gambling category. 

“I’d like to thank all of our customers for their generous votes and for supporting our Gift of Giving initiative for the seventh year running,” John Coleman, CEO of Microgaming, said.

“Involving the wider industry in CSR is important to us at Microgaming, which is why we included the new responsible gambling category – giving back is what we are all about. Well done to the winning charities in 2019’s campaign and we hope these donations will help you to keep doing what you do best,” he added.
