Golden Nugget 2025

Our donors and community partners continue to stand beside us as we work to #changekidshealth! We are blessed to experience firsthand the generosity of Golden Nugget’s guests through the TITO (ticket in, ticket out) program. When casino goers cash out their winnings, they can donate their change to a non-profit organization of their choice. Thanks to the incredible support from Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino – Lake Charles, we received $46,732 last quarter! This contribution helps us continue providing vital care and support to needy children. Thank you, Golden Nugget Lake Charles, for making a difference in our community!
