Integrated resort operator Wynn has donated 700,000 patacas to the Charity Fund of the Readers of Macao Daily News for the fundraising event “Walk for a Million” slated on December 14.
The cheque presentation ceremony took place on Wednesday at Wynn Palace, with representatives including the integrated resort operator’s President, Vice Chairman and Executive Director Linda Chen Chih-ling presenting the cheque on behalf of her company to representatives of the Charity Fund including Ho Teng Iat, who chairs it.
Aside from the donation, the statement said that Wynn has encouraged over 1,000 staff and their families to join the upcoming “Walk for a Million”.
The statement said that Ho noted her appreciation to Wynn for its long-term support and highlighted that the “Walk for a Million” campaign is a carnival-like charity event that has been consistently held for 42 years.
The statement added that Chen pointed out that in addition to encouraging staff to participate in the “Walk for a Million” to support charitable causes, she also hopes to further inspire them to engage in public welfare initiatives, thereby advancing charitable work with collective goodwill. The company has also been consolidating resources from the group and all sectors of society through the Wynn Care Foundation to promote public welfare projects in various areas, according to the statement.
