Thimbles’ Social Responsibility Initiative: Helping Local Charities
As one of the leading casinos in the country, Thimbles is committed to not just providing entertainment and a chance to win big, but also to giving back to the community that has supported us for so long. Our social responsibility initiative, "Helping Hands," aims to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need by partnering with local charities and organizations.
A Brief History of Thimbles’ Commitment to thimbles-site.com Social Responsibility
Thimbles was founded over two decades ago with a clear vision: to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where people could come together, have fun, and potentially win life-changing prizes. From the very beginning, our founders knew that their success was not solely dependent on the success of the casino itself, but also on the well-being of the community it serves.
In the early days, Thimbles’ commitment to social responsibility was evident in small ways – hosting charity events, donating to local food banks, and supporting community arts programs. However, as the years passed and our popularity grew, so did our ambition. We began to formalize our charitable efforts under a single umbrella initiative: Helping Hands.
The Helping Hands Initiative
Launched in 2015, Helping Hands is a comprehensive program aimed at making a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by poverty, illness, or other forms of hardship. Our team works closely with local charities and organizations to identify areas where we can have the greatest impact.
To date, Thimbles has partnered with over 20 local charities, donating an estimated $1 million annually to support causes such as:
- Food banks: providing essentials like groceries and household items to families struggling to make ends meet
- Children’s hospitals: offering comfort and support to young patients undergoing treatment
- Homelessness initiatives: helping individuals find stable housing and get back on their feet
Case Study: Thimbles’ Partnership with the Local Food Bank
One of our most successful partnerships is with the local food bank, which provides vital assistance to families in need. Each month, we donate a portion of our proceeds from slot machine revenue to the organization, helping them purchase and distribute essential groceries.
In addition to monetary donations, Thimbles also engages in volunteer activities at the food bank, such as sorting and packing food items, and participating in fundraising events.
Impact on the Community
The impact of Helping Hands cannot be overstated. In 2022 alone, our initiative helped provide over 10,000 meals for local families struggling with hunger, distributed essential hygiene products to low-income households, and funded critical medical equipment for a nearby children’s hospital.
But it’s not just about numbers – it’s about the people behind them. Thimbles’ commitment to social responsibility has created a ripple effect of kindness throughout our community. We’ve seen firsthand the joy on children’s faces when they receive a new toy or book, the gratitude in the eyes of families who’ve received vital assistance during a time of need.
Engaging Our Customers
As part of our initiative, we also aim to engage and educate our customers about the importance of social responsibility. We encourage them to get involved by:
- Participating in fundraising events
- Donating to charity through our "Round-Up" program, which rounds up their winnings to the nearest dollar for a designated cause
- Spreading awareness about local charities on social media using #ThimblesGives
Challenges and Future Plans
While we’re proud of our achievements thus far, there’s still much work to be done. As the needs of our community continue to grow, so must our commitment to Helping Hands.
We recognize that social responsibility is an ongoing effort, requiring creativity, flexibility, and dedication. We’re committed to continuing this journey with our partners, continually seeking new ways to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those around us.
Conclusion
At Thimbles, we believe that success is not just about winning big or having fun – it’s about creating a positive impact on the world around us. Our Helping Hands initiative embodies this commitment to social responsibility, demonstrating our dedication to giving back to the community that has supported us for so long.
As we look to the future, we’re excited to build upon our existing partnerships and forge new ones, knowing that together with our customers and partners, we can create a brighter tomorrow for those in need.
