Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino celebrated their volunteer and donation contributions during the Against Abuse Seeds of Change annual gala Oct. 19. Partnering with Against Abuse, a Pinal County-based organization that supports individuals affected by family dysfunction and domestic violence, Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino’s HERO initiative enables casino team members to engage in meaningful volunteer work and financial support initiatives.
One such initiative led by the SAVVY Business Impact Group was a Giving Tree event that collected bedding, socks, paper towels and toiletry items for the Against Abuse shelter. Throughout 2024, the HERO committee, SAVVY team members and guests through NRT donations, raised more than $20,000 and volunteered more than 130 hours.
“We are incredibly proud to back an organization that provides such critical services to our community,” says Donata Cobb, SAVVY leader. “I couldn’t be prouder of our team.”
“When Harrah’s Ak-Chin formed SAVVY and the team said they wanted to partner with us, we were thrilled,” says Torri Anderson, Seeds of Change Chairperson and Against Abuse Inc. board member. “The team’s efforts have helped us make a huge difference in the lives of those who need an extra hand.”
