Sycuan Casino Resort donates $187,000 to charity
The California venue has held its 2022 Annual Holiday Gift Giving ceremony.
US.- Sycuan Casino Resort in California split $187,000 between 28 different charities at its 1th Annual Holiday Gift Giving ceremony. Each December, members of the Sycuan Tribal Council and leadership team select charities to support. The event has supported hundreds of nonprofit organisations ranging from social and health services to the arts and the environment.
Cody Martinez, chairman of the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation, said: “This event is always such a special one, because members of our team are given the opportunity to select a charity partner that is meaningful to them. Our event this year is also very exciting, because we’ve broken another record making 2022 the biggest Gift Giving Ceremony we’ve ever had. We are honored and proud to support these organizations that are making a positive difference in our community every single day.”
In June, the Sycuan Casino Resort made a $1.1m donation to the San Diego Symphony. The charitable gift was given to The Future is Hear campaign, an initiative run by the Symphony to support artistic and community programmes, including the construction of The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, an outdoor waterfront venue at San Diego’s Embarcadero Marina developed and managed by the Symphony.
