Horseshoe HEROs donate during holiday season
TUNICA RESORTS — Horseshoe Tunica HEROs, the employee-based volunteers, donated generously during the holiday season.
Just in time for the Thanksgiving holidays, Horseshoe partnered with Sacred
Heart Southern Missions
and delivered food to 32
residents of Golden Estates and 60 residents of KPC Housing in Tunica. This holiday season’s generosity allowed the HEROs to expand the giving to Southern Pines Assisted Living in Horn Lake.
Spreading joy and cheer over the Christmas holidays, Horseshoe donated more than 200 slippers and blankets to senior and disabled individuals in Tunica County, Horn Lake, and at the VA Medical Center in Memphis. The residents were thankful and appreciative of the gifts.
Additionally, each month, Horseshoe HEROs support more than 250 families in the Tunica area by distributing food with the Mid-South Food Bank.
