Microgaming has donated £30,000 between four charities as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility programme, PlayItForward.
Within the programme is the Gift of Giving initiative. It provides Microgaming’s customers the opportunity to vote for one of several charities in their region. In lieu of Christmas gifts, £30,000 is split equally between four global regions: Isle of Man, UK and Europe, Africa, and Rest of the World.
The vote in December 2017 was Microgaming’s fifth annual Gift of Giving campaign, taking the total donated to £150,000.
The charities that received the highest number of votes in each region, for the second year running, were Women’s Refuge (Isle of Man), Teenage Cancer Trust (UK and Europe), Save the Rhino International (Africa) and Médecins Sans Frontières (Rest of the World).
Kate Moughtin, senior internal brand manager for Microgaming, said: “Gift of Giving has been running for five very successful years and it is fantastic that we’ve been able to donate £150K to a number of very worthy causes. Thank you to all our customers and contacts who have taken the time to vote. Together we are creating positive change through our initiatives.”
