While there are many different areas in which Native Americans contribute money to charities, one of the most popular is that of education. Take the Cheyenne Arapaho Tribes, or Wiyott which are two offering such programs. Most often these are subsidized through players at various Indian casinos. The Lucky Star and Blue Lake casinos are two which offer this type of support for Native American students.
One of the best of these programs is the tribe's Johnson O'Malley Program or JOM, this particular program supports tribal students with various educational needs. Generally, members of a Players Club at various casinos whom have losses automatically donate some aspect of the loss to these programs. Unfortunately, not all casinos provide this support to local students.
There are a number of other tribes which offer these type programs across the United States. Unfortunately, Native American students do not have the same opportunities in places like Texas and other states in which gambling remains illegal. However, Arizona and Connecticut are two locations which also offer great casinos with similar programs.
Anyone visiting an Indian casino in any area may want to inquire as to if such a program exist. For, while it will not help recover losses like the IRS, it can help make losing somewhat easier by knowing that part will go to a good cause. Of course, it is important to remember that while individuals can report losses to the IRS, winnings over a certain amount must also be reported.
A number of tribes offer free play via mailers to local residents on a monthly basis. Generally, this free play is equal to $5-15 dollars with a portion designated for a charitable program in locations where such programs exist. Regardless, when individuals can play with casino money, losses are not always as hard to bear whether a portion is donated to a cause or is simply returned to the casino.
Individuals who love to play may want to sign up at each and every players club one encounters whether at home or on the road. For, not only do a number offer free money and other benefits, some offer senior days with drawings and prizes. Whereas, others have been known to offer free meals, drinks or hotel rooms.
While some players may win on this free money, others often lose. As with all casinos, there is never a guarantee of winning. As such, those whom do not have the money to lose may want to avoid using personal funds and strictly focus on playing during times in which these free monies are available.
The monies are often used for different needs associated with education. These can include supplies, breakfast and lunch programs for low income students, class fees, correspondence courses and driver education fees. In some cases, funds may also support low income students with regards to medical assistance and summer camp fees. While there are also funds for head start and other associated programs, most often the funds are applied toward elementary through high school level studies.
