Wynn Las Vegas employees donate $100,000 to local food bank

20 March 2020

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Wynn Employee Foundation has committed to donating $100,000 to Three Square in Las Vegas to assist children and seniors who are food insecure. The donation was allocated from the 2019 Community Grant Fund which is contributed to by employees.

"I am so proud of our employees and the donations that they have selflessly made throughout the year," said Matt Maddox, CEO of Wynn Resorts. "It is important in times like these that we give back to the community when it is needed the most."

Throughout the year, employees of Wynn Resorts have the opportunity to contribute to the company's Community Grant Fund which receives a dollar for dollar corporate match. On 16 March, the Employee Advisory Council who represent the employees of Wynn Resorts, approved community grants to support local food banks during this unprecedented time.

In addition to the donation, Wynn Las Vegas has donated food to local charities prior to temporarily closing the resorts. To date, approximately 96,000 pounds of goods have been distributed to Three Square, Share Village, Project 150, Ronald McDonald House, Just One Project, Lutheran Social Services, HELP of Southern Nevada, U.S. Vets, Shade Tree, HopeLink, Equality NV, Rescue Mission, Salvation Army and more with an estimated value of $750,000.
