Caesars Foundation

The Caesars Foundation is a private foundation funded by a percentage of operating income from Caesars Entertainment's resorts. The Foundation is the entity through which Caesars Entertainment funds programs and projects of $10,000 or more, as well as not-for-profit giving requirements imposed by certain operating jurisdictions. The Foundation's objective is to strengthen organizations and programs in the communities where our employees and their families live and work.

Requests must be submitted through Caesars Entertainment properties – the corporate office will not accept any requests for funding. You may mail your proposal directly to the property located nearest to your community. For a list of properties and address information, please click here.

When submitting your request, please be sure to include the following documents:
  • Request letter specifying your organization is seeking a Foundation grant
  • Statement of project to be funded
  • Brief statement of your organization's history, goals and accomplishments to-date
  • Internal Revenue Service tax exemption letter granting 501(c)(3) designation
  • List of current funding sources pertaining to the request
  • List of your organization's governing board members (preferably on organization letterhead)
  • Diversity statement
  • Gift recognition information (please note that all recognition opportunities must acknowledge the Caesars Foundation, not the sponsoring property) 
To find information regarding company-wide giving, or to submit a request for in-kind or monetary donations from one of Caesars Entertainment's properties, please visit www.caesars.com.
