How to Run a Charity  Casino

Aces Fun Casinos have helped raise many thousands of pounds for worthwhile causes over the years. We are honoured to be asked to help raise money with our fun casino tables in a few weeks time. The event is being held at Long Ashton Golf Club   https://www.longashtongolfclub.co.uk/and promises to be a very entertaining evening. As you can see from the flyer below, your entrance fee covers a good two course dinner and is open to members and guests. The ‘Vegas themed charity casino event will offer three popular games of chance – roulette, blackjack and poker. Professional croupiers on hand, trained to entertain as well as explain the rules to anyone that hasn’t played before.

Points to Keep in Mind

• First and foremost the event can’t possibly be a success without the ‘bums on seats’. Whatever it takes to advertise the charity casino event – via friends and family, business contacts, advertising within and without your immediate circle. Social media is of course a great way to get the message across.
• The aim of the game is to raise money of course. However it’s also, in most cases including this one. a way to bring members together in a social setting. A fun casino is a great way to do this.
• There are a few ways to raise money on a charity casino. In some cases it will depend on how big the event is going to be. With good connections in the business world, the casino tables could be sponsored. Generous donors can have their businesses advertised on the casino tables. The entry price can be aimed at covering the cost of the entertainment plus profit for the charity.

On the night then, guests are given free money to exchange for chips. They play for fun and the highest roller gets a prize at the end. However, by far the most effective way is to keep the ticket price low to encourage more participants. On the night the fun money is sold for a pre-determined sum. We recommend £10.00 for each note sold. Again, at the end of the night the highest roller gets a prize.

And Finally…

On the night there are ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts. The biggest ‘don’t I can offer is don’t give away chips thinking that people will buy more when they’ve run out. Initially the charity casino tables will be full of guests playing with their free money and not all of them will lose! A lot of people, however good intentioned, will decide their luck isn’t with them and stop. Others will not want to buy something they had ‘free’ in the first place.  Raising money for a worthwhile cause can be a daunting exercise. We are ready to help you through the process.
