Local sponsorships and charitable programs showcase Jamul’s commitment to giving back all year long
JAMUL, Calif., (Nov. 27, 2021) – In the spirit of the holidays, Jamul Casino is continuing its dedication to the San Diego and Jamul Indian Village community by building on its longstanding tradition of giving back. In line with Jamul Casino’s core mission, corporate responsibility and community outreach remain at the heart of its operations. With initiatives prioritizing ongoing charitable giving, the casino is proud to support various local organizations that provide vital resources to those in need.
Kicking off the season of giving, Jamul Casino’s Community Champions team hand delivered 65 turkeys to the San Diego LGBT Center and Imperial Court de San Diego in support of the Annual Scott Carlson & Dan Ferbal Thanksgiving Community Dinner. This event honors those who face a range of hardships including cancer, homelessness and other health challenges, ensuring they have a safe and welcoming place to gather and celebrate. The Community Champions program, a vision brought to life by casino President & General Manager, Mary Cheeks, has inspired Jamul Casino’s Team Members to engage in diverse volunteer activities to make an impact across San Diego.
In addition, Jamul Casino provides guests with an ongoing opportunity to contribute through its giving kiosks. Guests can donate their small change from slot tickets, turning spare coins into meaningful support for community programs year-round, including charitable donations to the San Diego Food Bank, Many Shades of Pink, Harvey Family Foundation and more.
This year, the Team and Tribe have supported dozens of organizations, championing for positive change with areas of focus including the well-being of veterans, those affected by mental health challenges, underserved communities among many more.
In 2024, Jamul Casino’s contributions equated to $350,000 in direct donations to various organizations and an additional $119,000 to support charitable programs across the region through its on-property donation program. These impactful implementations allow Jamul Casino and its guests to work together to make a meaningful impact throughout San Diego County and beyond.
As the holidays approach, Jamul Casino and the Jamul Indian Village celebrate the importance of giving back to the community, especially to those in need of the most support. Together, they look forward to spreading joy, supporting their neighbors and helping to ensure everyone in the community experiences the spirit of the season.
