Impact Stories - Charitable Gaming

The Impact We’ve Had

Participating in Charitable Gaming provides funding for local charities and non-profits, and that’s what makes these stories possible.
Our true impact isn’t only measured in dollars, but in stories just like these.

“Welcome to the Charitable Gaming, Community Good website. Charitable Gaming has been a cornerstone in assisting local charities in communities for decades. Our goal is to raise awareness of these on-going efforts in communities all across Ontario. I invite you to visit the various pages on this site to learn more about the impact and how it is made possible."
– Lynn Cassidy, Executive Director, OCGA
"Thanks to the Charitable Gaming funds raised at Paradise Gaming Centre through our Volunteer efforts, we were able to purchase groceries for our “Meal to Go” program. This allowed us to prepare frozen meals for local seniors to purchase. We wouldn’t have been able to provide these services without this generous support."
– From the staff and participants at Life After Fifty – Thank You!
Being involved with Charitable Gaming for over 15 years, I can attest to the immeasurable impact that it has on Communities in Ontario. Grassroots organizations that struggle to qualify for other funding models are able to flourish; often expanding their services and programs and extending their reach. These funds are kept in our Communities and impact the lives of our neighbours and friends. Charitable Gaming undoubtedly strengthens the fabric of communities all over the Province.
