MGM Resorts Foundation awards 82 grants to nonprofit organizations
The grants totaled nearly $2m and were distributed to various states in the US.
The purpose of the MGM Resorts Foundation is to collect and distribute funds and assets donated by employees and guests of MGM Resorts to aid and support qualified community nonprofit programs.
The company recently awarded 82 grants totaling nearly $2m to nonprofit organizations located in communities around the US in states that MGM Resorts operates.
These communities are located throughout Southern Nevada, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Northeast Ohio, the DC Metropolitan area and Western Massachusetts.
The funds come from contributions made to the Community Grant Fund by MGM Resorts employees as well as guests that decide to donate.
Grant decisions are made by the MGM Resorts Foundation Community Grant Council, which is a voluntary committee of employees who represent their respective regions.
MGM Resorts International Executive Director of Community Engagement Maria Jose Gatti said: “Year after year we are amazed at the generosity of our employees and now guests. In 2022, MGM Resorts employees gave to 82 nonprofit organizations that serve the communities where we live and work.
“On behalf of our grant recipients, thank you to those who gave to the Community Grant Fund, providing vital assistance to our communities including medical care, mental health counseling, food and shelter.”
Originally established in 2002, the MGM Resorts Foundation was created to provide opportunities for MGM Resorts employees to contribute to charitable causes.
Since its birth, the Foundation has raised more than $100m and supported more than 1,500 charitable organizations.
The Community Grant Council is responsible for distributing donations not marked for specific nonprofit organizations or programs into a grant fund.
