“Losing Bet” will equip RMA members with the tools necessary to understand and advocate for changes to the charitable gaming model.
RMA is concerned about the inequities faced by rural organizations through the current charitable gaming model. Despite many years of advocacy from RMA and other rural stakeholders, the Government of Alberta has taken no action to ensure gaming funds are distributed equitably to charitable organizations across the province.
RMA is not backing down from this issue. That is why RMA has launched “Losing Bet,” a campaign that will call on the Government of Alberta to make changes to the charitable gaming model to address the inequities that currently exist.
This week, “Losing Bet” will shed light on the inequities of the charitable gaming model and the effects this has on rural charitable organizations. This will set the stage for future weeks, when the series will continue to explain how the system doesn’t work for rural communities and how it can be repaired.
To follow along with this campaign, please visit the RMA’s Charitable Gaming Resources webpage and subscribe to the RMA’s Contact Newsletter to stay up to date with the release of further information!
