More than 76 percent of the casino’s employees participated in a HERO activity in 2017. Once again, the casino ranked in the top three, coming in third place, across the entire Caesars Entertainment brand for its October Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign and second in the brand for its CodeGreen sustainability efforts during the month of April.
The most tangible way Harrah’s philanthropic efforts can be seen is through the organizations and causes the casino supported this past year: F.O.R. Maricopa; Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day; Phoenix Rescue Mission; American Cancer Society; Phoenix Children’s Hospital; Maricopa Against Abuse; United Way of Pinal County; Habitat for Humanity and The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition.
