Casino-on-Net 888 Charity Day – October 10

2007 October 09, Erana Hansen

As part of their 10th birthday celebrations, Casino-on-Net 888 has announced that October 10, 2007 will be its first charity day.

Casino-on-Net 888 has pledged $100,000 to charity and online casino players can jump on the bandwagon and join in the giving spirit.

Casino-on-Net 888 will be donating funds to two special charities: Earth Action and World for World.

Earth Action is an organization which seeks to mobilize people to press their governments to solve global problems. They describe themselves as "Amnesty International for the planet". Earth Action campaigns include working towards:

• Prevent dangerous climate change and promote renewable energy
• Build a more democratic and effective United Nations
• Control the global AIDS epidemic
• Care for the world's 100 million street children and end child labour
• Protect the last great forests
• Eliminate nuclear weapons

World for World seeks to increase public awareness about global development issues by focusing on development cooperation and supporting the UN agenda for Global Development in the 21st century.

If you agree that one or both of these charities are worth your support, you can help by simply opening an account and playing your favourite online casino games at Casino-on-Net 888.

888.com's Marketing Director, Matt Robinson, said "This is the first time we have run a Global charity day and we're delighted we can raise money for such important causes. It's a great opportunity for all of our players to work with us in contributing to important global issues -- simply by playing and enjoying our games."
