The answer is YES! Of course we can! As you know, Calvin Ayre has challenged the gambling industry to collectively donate $1,000,000 for Haiti relief through Oxfam (and other trusted charity organizations) and his private Foundation will match every single penny along the way. This means that if the gambling community comes together and really does this, we can raise $2,000,000 for those who need our help so badly, and this would be simply amazing. Period.

Many of you come to me looking for the party schedule at the conferences (which I do have, by the way), but this time I am hoping you will come to me to find out how you can help Haiti. I have a very simple answer for you. The fine folks behind iGaming Business have developed a direct relationship with Oxfam who will be delighted to receive your donation through a special site which has been created for the gambling industry.

All the donations made at this site between now and the iGB Affiliate Awards will be totaled, matched by the Calvin Ayre Foundation, and then presented to an Oxfam representative who will be joining us at the awards ceremony. If you are unable to attend the awards, please know that your donation counts, and you can actually watch Oxfam receive their check as the entire awards ceremony will be streamed live for the first time ever.

To find out more on how iGaming Business has truly risen to Calvin’s challenge by helping to bring the industry together in this time of need, please visit the LAC website.

…and please don’t forget that YES, We ‘Kin Do it!
