FUNNER, CA – Harrah’s Resort Southern California has announced the return of its annual charitable program, “All-In 4 Change.” Entering its ninth year, the program will award $150,000 in grants to deserving Southern California non-profits. Since 2015, All-In 4 Change has allowed the resort to share its success with the community and support organizations making a positive impact in the region.
“Harrah’s Resort Southern California is committed to supporting the communities where we live, work, and play,” said Bo Mazzetti, Chairman of the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians. “Aside from creating a fun escape for Southern Californians to retreat to, the resort is honored to share its success with the local community.”
Harrah’s Resort Southern California has shared its financial success by donating a portion of profits to the local community and charitable causes since its 2002 opening. To date, the resort has donated more than $4.3 million in cash and in-kind gifts to community partners and charitable organizations as a part of its ongoing commitment to giving back.
“It’s been such a joy to see the impact Harrah’s Resort Southern California has had over the last 22 years and it’s been an honor to be able to share our success and give back to the same communities that have uplifted us,” said Jill Barrett, SVP and GM. “Each year, All-In 4 Change is an exciting and rewarding event, so we can’t wait to celebrate the organizations that are dedicated to making a difference and leaving a lasting impact on our local communities.”
Non-profits from San Diego, Riverside and Orange Counties are invited to apply for the program beginning Jul. 1 through Jul. 31. Applications will be carefully reviewed by the judging committee and on Aug. 8, eligible applicants will be informed that they made it to the next stage. Community members are encouraged to vote for their favorite non-profits among the group of finalists from Aug. 19 to Sept. 2, and when the polls close, votes will be tabulated to count for 50 percent of the overall score. The remaining 50 percent of the score will be determined by a carefully selected committee at Harrah’s Resort Southern California.
