Nonprofits receive donations from IP Casino

It’s an exciting time to be a nonprofit organization on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Recently the IP Casino Resort and Spa donated more than $800,000 to nonprofits across the Coast this year. Forty-one nonprofits were selected to receive funds, helping to support and raise awareness for the positive development of youth, education, arts, health, social, and civic programs which contribute to a higher quality of life within the communities of the greater Gulf Coast region.

The IP has donated funding to various groups since 2006 with donations totaling more than $19 million to date. IP will announce additional donations to be made in 2019 at a later date.
