Caesars Regional & Property Giving Grant

The Caesars Foundation supports community-focused organizations through monetary and in-kind donations, prioritizing strategic areas like social equity, climate action, and mental health. Eligible applicants include IRS-recognized nonprofits and educational institutions operating within the U.S. Requests must align with these focus areas to enhance community impact. Organizations that discriminate or operate outside the U.S. are ineligible. By fostering collaboration, the foundation aims to uplift vulnerable populations and promote sustainable practices.

Caesars Entertainment supports our communities through charitable donations to eligible organizations. These donations take the form of monetary funds and/or in-kind contributions. In-kind contributions are donations of goods, such as tickets to shows or providing meeting space. The same constraints that govern proper management of monetary funds also apply to in-kind contributions.
Strategic Community Impact Areas for Giving
Caesars Entertainment seeks to do the best with its charitable contributions. As such, we have identified high-impact focus areas that we think are particularly beneficial for our communities. Your request is more likely to be approved if it benefits one of these strategic focus areas.
Social Equity and Education
We seek to partner with organizations that assist with education (including K-12 and post-secondary), workforce development, job training, and public awareness campaigns, and organizations focused on driving equity for any economic, social and environmental opportunities. Organizations that ensure social-economic equity, access to resources and good jobs, while protecting vulnerable populations from abuse and exploitation (e.g. anti-human trafficking, affordable housing, immigration integration, homeless services and social services, children and family services, and neighborhood development projects) will also be considered.
Climate Change and Food Security
We seek to partner with organizations that focus on environmental sustainability or food security to include: Non-profit, non-governmental, and advocacy organizations that positively impact climate, water, waste, energy, and food security
Responsible Play and Mental Health
We will consider organizations that align with the Caesars Responsible Gaming strategy, as well as organizations that provide services, tools, treatment and support for mental health
