This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Miracle on Canal Street program at Potawatomi Bingo Casino in Milwaukee. The program seeks to create new and unique ways to help raise money for children’s charities throughout the state. Now, the Potawatomi Poker Room is getting in on the action for the first time.
For select tournaments at Potawatomi, including those on Sundays, Mondays and Fridays, players will be offered an optional $10 add-on. That money will be donated to charity through the Miracle on Canal Street program.
“We’re pleased to help contribute funds to the Miracle on Canal Street program though this unique promotion in the poker room. The funds raised will support a number of basic needs for youth in our community,” poker room manager Jeff Gemini said. “The generosity of our guests will certainly make a difference in children’s lives.”
The altruistic add-on will be offered in Potawatomi’s Sunday 3 p.m. ($165, limited to 50 players); Monday’s 8 p.m. ($110); and Friday’s noon satellite ($110). For more information, call the poker room at (414) 847-7605.
