Caesars Entertainment Foundation is the corporate giving arm of Caesars that concentrates grantmaking in communities where the company operates, with a particular emphasis on supporting older adults' independence and nutrition, environmental sustainability and conservation, and local community quality-of-life services. It funds both direct nonprofit programs (meals for seniors, youth development, conservation) and place-based municipal allocations (a New Orleans council-distributed community support pool), and occasionally funds research and prevention work related to gaming harms.
Rolling acceptance of unsolicited general grants (typical awards start around $10,000 and vary by project) focused on Caesars operating markets (Las Vegas, Laughlin, Reno); a separate annual New Orleans municipal pool (~$225,000) is distributed via City Council members with local application cycles; occasional larger or programmatic gifts (e.g., research grants) are made by invitation or targeted processes.

Use the Caesars Foundation website to submit rolling general grant requests and emphasize senior services, environmental impact, or community quality-of-life in Caesars markets; expect typical awards of $10,000+, and provide measurable outcomes. For New Orleans funding, apply through the City Council/councilmember process during that municipality's annual cycle (check council deadlines—previous cycle deadline July 25). For larger or research-focused grants (e.g., responsible gaming), be prepared for a targeted or invitation-based review and to supply detailed program budgets and evaluation plans.
