Fairway Casino to host charity golf tournament in Ireland

I really admire those casinos extending their hands to reach out the less fortunate people. Too glad there is still such generous and down to earth people. It really seems unbelievable to think that gambling activities are commonly criticized by many but look at it now, they were actually one of those who are helping out the needy. :thewave:

Such a keen idea of giving part of your money out of gambling into a charity. Somehow you played for a reason.

You know what, gambling really isn't just about wagering money, it's also about giving money to the poor as well (well, only for those who think it is and cares about sharing a portion of their huge revenue from gambling). I'll help promote this one..

Just a quick note to thank the GPWA, APCW and Casino City organization for agreeing to become official media sponsors of this exciting event. We have about half the foursomes already booked, and look forward to seeing some old friends and making new ones at the event, and at the iGaming Supershow.

Cheers,

Gian
