Charitable Giving
|
As part of our Code of Commitment, Harrah's believes in supporting the communities in we live and work through charitable donations, community partnerships and sponsorships.
Monetary contributions are but one element of the company's social investment program. Equally important are in-kind contributions, which are donations of goods, services and other items of value. The same constraints that govern proper management of monetary gifts also apply to in-kind contributions.
Guidelines for giving: - Contributions are given to a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that provides:
- Amount requested
- Statement of proposed objective
- Statement of diversity
- Brief statement of history, goals and accomplishments to date
- Current annual report
- Internal Revenue Service Tax exemption letter granting 501(c)(3) designation
- Current year’s budget showing anticipated expenses and income
- Current corporate and foundation funding sources, public and/or private, with amounts contributed within the most recent 12 months or last fiscal year
- Most recent independently audited financial statement
- Governing board members
- Accrediting agencies, where appropriate
- Cultural organizations should submit their most recent 12-month audience statistics
- When possible, requests should also show:
- Strong leadership that will significantly strengthen communities in which Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. operates or draw customers and that will serve as a model for other non-profit groups
- Sound administrative and financial conditions
- Opportunities for HET staff involvement
- Willingness to support HET in a public forum
- Donations will not be made to following:
- Organizations operating for profit
- Any organizations which is known to have discriminatory policies with regard to race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, age or national background
- Individuals for educational or other purposes
- Political causes or candidates
