It's good, and a win-win situation for both sides. As the casino avoids having to pay high taxes due to them being classified as a non-profit/charitable organization, and it's also good that they are trying to help people with the earnings they accumulate, although it is only good if they donate these earnings through a bona fide charity, and not one that they just setup to funnel all their earnings into so as to avoid taxes like what most rich people do nowadays.

Have you played in a charitable casino or will you consider doing it?
If the charity casino were a crypto casino, I would consider playing there as a portion of the casino's earnings would go to the people who need it. I think this can attract people's interest in giving to charity, even though they play gambling first before giving it. Even if they lose, the money will be donated by the casino to needy people, so we shouldn't be sad. And that is a positive activity that casinos can do so that people who play there know that their money will be distributed to places that are needed. But maybe some don't want to play in such charity casinos because they think it is something different.
Even if it’s not a crypto casino, I would never hesitate to bet on it as long as it’s a licensed and a reputable casino. Because the fact that the casino’s share will also proceed to helping people in need, for me that is a relieve especially if I made consistent losses from that casino. But of course, I would never gamble just to lose, but most likely to make personal profits too. At least, I’m having fun and I’m also gaining rewards from it.

I think some casinos are already doing that charitable work but not tagging their casino business as charitable casinos.

Regardless of the purpose, a casino is a casino and what they prioritized is to work as a normal casino the charitable side should not be the main agenda as it might lead others to think that the casino is using charity to build its name.

I remember freebitco.in organized a charity drive on their gambling site but I don't remember how it turned out.

Well, personally, I do not see the difference between a charitable casino and a normal casino out there, because at some points, even a normal casino do take of their profit to support the need in the society.
Take for example, Stake.com., stakes as I know have been involved in giving away to the needy around the world, Infact, in the last event, stake donated over 1 million dollars to a community to help create jobs and reduce poverty in the community..

So what  I am saying right now is that, there are a lot of casinos who are silently contributing to humanitarian welfare, that we do not know  about.

I've always wanted MintDice to be able to send a portion of it's revenue to open source software development, mostly in the name of disrupting Big Tech in as many ways as possible. Unfortunately it hasn't had the traction to be able to afford to do that yet. Hopefully one day Smiley
Have you tried suggesting it to them? However, if you are the only one who will do it then it will be hard for them to be convinced. You might need to encourage other people as well or those who play on that casino to do the same thing. Donating doesn't always mean a huge amount but any amounts can also do since donating is not a mandatory thing.

They should realize that there are also other companies who are doing their part so the small amount that they are giving will still look huge if combined with other smaller amounts. I like the casino who has an initiative about this and this could attract more people to play on their platform.

Are these mostly private companies? Government-owned?

If government-owned, I always take part in it by supporting the biggest lottery here. Not expecting to win but I'm buying at least 3-5 tickets per a week on regular basis. I know that there's a higher chance to be struck by lightning instead of winning the lottery but I don't mind it. Proceeds of the national lottery here are intended for supporting the government's charitable activity and additional revenue for infrastructure.

If private companies, well I hope I can find some here. But of course, these casinos have to be legally registered and games are following the fairness system. More importantly, have the characteristics of a good casino.

Unusual to see such here in our country or maybe I'm not just used to hearing it. But I can say that I'm always up to date at those new casinos here (online) and honestly, already tried several of them but none of those I believed falls in the category of being a charitable casino.

Do these casinos mostly physical casinos? If that is so, it's good to take part in these casinos as at least, while we gamble and lose money in the process, we are somehow contributing money to the casino funds intended for charity purposes.

I just do hope that these casinos are legitimate and really support some charities and not just for a show-off to attract more users.

The concept is pretty straightforward and gives gamblers a chance to enjoy while also helping other people. It's like donating with a twist, and the twist is great given that you get to enjoy your money before you give it to other. It's kinda comforting and takes a lot of regret if you know that some of the money you gambled will go towards a greater good. If there were any crypto casinos that do this, might as well support them after you verified that they really are donating to charity.

It sound funny to be honest lol.

Many countries doesn't allow gambling activities, so it's impossible if there's a project want to create a charitable casino, because even though their intention is good, but they're breaking their country rules.

IMO charitable casino seems wouldn't survive in the long run because there's must be a lucky gambler will win big. Since the charitable casino doesn't have big bankroll because they've transfer their money to a charity or the poor, they will suffer a problem.
If the the charity casino is run professionally as a non-profit organization then the casino must keep enough funds to satisfy its clients and to pay its employees, and as long as the max amount of money you could bet was low then the casino should remain in business without too much of a problem, however I am not so sure how feasible is this idea considering I have never gambled in one and the casino could still fail for all the regular reasons the rest of the casinos also fail.

I've never heard the term charitable casino before, so it's interesting to me.  That might be an angle that would help people feel better about losing.  I'm sure to some extent all casinos donate something to charity and I'm sure some of the large ones donate quite a bit.  How does this differ from being labeled a charitable casino?  Do they have to pledge a certain percentage of their revenue or profit?  Maybe all casinos should do a better job of showing where they donate their funds, as I honestly have no idea if Stake donates anything to charity or not.  I just assume they do as it seems like they have a great deal of funds and probably some causes the owners care about.

We also have a local charity in our country. They're a sweepstakes company that is being supported by the government and they focus on raising and providing funds for different programs such as health services and medical assistance. They run lottery and sweepstakes games and help people that are in need at the same time.
I've seen hpw thia company has been helping needy people. Lots of the poorest of the poor run into them for medication and surgery purposes which is a big help.

A charitable casino means a casino limited to a building, or portion of a building, a) providing equipment, management and personnel for the purposes of conducting a non- profit casino, where a portion of the net income benefits various charities; and b) operated by a provincially licensed charitable management company.

I am familiar with charitable events but this is my first time to hear about charitable casino. The funds realized are used for relief aid, counternarcotics assistance, helping to people fighting with a cancer, and many other good causes.  As a matter of fact, I will be participating in one this weekend to raise funds for people displaced by conflict in my country. My mindset is just to have fun. However, I will try to win but then if I lose, I will know it will be a cash assistance for those in need. My budget for this is just $300.

Did you know that there are other casinos that donate a part of their revenue to do some good in this world?

  • Betoncharity: It is just an amazing that from 4 up to 40 percent of the Betoncharity.com house win go towards charity. That said, we are that shocked by their generosity as we do imagine the declared 4 societies claims on resources: - Red Crescent & International Red Cross; The Institute of UCSF Aids Research; Foundation called Make-a-Wish America; the American Cancer Society.
  • Paf: The Finish oriented organizations, with the best kind of promo – “Play among friends”-, have been calling poker, slots, and more of live and online casino players for help towards the Red Cross, including supported welfare associations for children, since 1966.
  • RehabBingo: Not many people suspect it is the RehabBingo.com as a big help and an important sponsor of the Rehab group to fifty thousand disabled people with different physical and intellectual deformities across Ireland. And to be completely honest, their offering isn’t bad!
  • CaptainCharity: Among the rest, we’ve discovered CaptainCharity by the address CaptainCharity.com, the organization shares 50% of the profit with 10 institutions, and later it is planned even more societies, which are chosen by players above ever. As far as we can see, it’s like the world of gambling is moving to the people advantage.

Have you played in a charitable casino or will you consider doing it?
Never heard about this one but I think there's a part that they do charity to lessen their taxes. I don't if this is applicable to this and correct me if I am wrong but there is one but there's a law in my country that will help them to lower their taxes I cannot explain it very well but that is it. But like what other people said, I rather give that money directly to the charity so I will not think some bad things that will make me judge the casino.

It is good to see that casinos go into charity work to assist people who are in need. I haven't taken note of a casino that does this but I know that human hearts are different,irrespective of their various characters. If it is gamblers that are donating in their various churches for charity purpose,I have seen that in my area.

Looking it from my own perspective,I thought that it wouldn't be decent for a casino who generates funds for gambling to use it for charity. The reason is that,casino house hedge always win their customers,which means the alogrithm is been manipulated in the on set of the casino when setting it up. Maybe am wrong on this.

How incredible that there are casinos that donate their proceeds to good causes! For some reason, I never connected charitable causes with casino gambling. Motivatingly, they donate a part of their net revenue to a variety of charitable causes. It's encouraging to see these gambling establishments making such a beneficial social effect via their services.

Taking part in a casino night for a good cause is a great idea, and I hope to see you there this weekend. Sounds like you're not just participating for the sake of a worthy cause, but also because it's a lot of fun. Perhaps you will emerge victorious and be in a position to help even more people in need.

Reading about Betoncharity, Paf, RehabBingo, and CaptainCharity makes me think about trying out one of these charitable casinos sometime in the future, even if I've never done so previously. It's wonderful that these casinos are donating a part of their earnings to charitable causes, and even better that players have the opportunity to direct the donations to causes of their choosing.

I have never played in the charity casino and if I want to give to charity, I already have a list of charities to which they can give donations. But it feels strange to play in a charity casino because it's gambling where we gamble with other players and spend some money. But if the casino wants to give some of its income to charity, I will support it and maybe I can do charity work without gambling. The casino could provide a wallet address on its site that would allow people to send money directly to the site's account so the casino could give it directly to a charity.

State-Sponsored Casinos do charitable things like funding some addiction programs and cancer events. Most of these events are for politicians to sound good for re-election, there is always an ulterior motive when it comes to charity and foundations. Sure it does help victims if the funds are really spent to the intended.  Its stained with controversy all the time and something like this on the crypto casinos is quite new.

I just wonder if a gambler will feel good about losing knowing that despite the loss it is gain to the less privileged. Does this justify gambling?

Ohyah sure. And many of us will come back not to actually win back but to give more.  Grin

I haven't played in a Charity foundation before, maybe not intentionally but I see this idea and initiative as a very nice one and if the people can stay without sentiment, you'll realize that some persons are good.
This is really a welcome development in the gambling Industry and I think it will also be welcomed in my local community and this is one of the major ways gambling positively can be encouraged as well and it also seems that the gambling industry is also a very nice and considerate community of people who see the winnings of others as a general win against the casino irrespective of where the winner comes from

Have you played in a charitable casino or will you consider doing it?
Yes, I've already played on a kind of charitable bingo which donated the money raised to the church. They ask for donations in form of prizes from stores, so for each round of the bingo lucky players are rewarded with home appliances, roast pork and chicken portions, candies' baskets, decorative items and so on. Actually, there is a long time since I've gone to this party for the last time, but it used to happen once a year.

It's a good initiative, of course, it can help a lot of people in precarious situations, although it's just a temporary aid for emergency times. Nobody should rely on charity for a living.

You seem like a good initiative. This is my first time to read about this.
So I'm familiar with charity and non-profit organisations and giving back to good causes. I'm really impressed with the causes those casinos supports. I just wonder if a gambler will feel good about losing knowing that despite the loss it is gain to the less privileged. Does this justify gambling?

i've heard of some casinos that give part of their profits to humanitarian donations and they do it per month, 3 months, 6 months, or once a year.  i personally really appreciate what gambling owners are doing, they don't enjoy their business profits 100% but share their sympathy for people who are not lucky.  i have never played on a charity gambling site, but i still support the good they have done.
