Tachi Palace joins Big Brothers, Big Sisters for a back-to-school backpack drive

Tachi Palace Hotel & Casino is partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central California for a back-to-school backpack drive. For the month of July, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, Tachi Palace will be accepting new backpacks, with the tags still on, that will be donated to local children in need.

“We are so grateful for what Tachi Palace does for our youth and community and are thankful for their partnership,” said Diane Phakonekham, Executive Director of Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Central California.  “Last year we had over 1,000 children on the waiting list that desperately needed a backpack and school supplies. Tachi Palace came through to ensure that every child received one, and they are on board to make sure this happens again this year.”

In addition to assisting area youth, Premiere Club Card Members who donate a new school size backpack will receive $20 in Tachi Cash.
