With the ever-growing online gambling and sports betting industry, responsible gaming has become a cause for concern. Thus, BetMGM announced that they donated $360,000 to the International Center for Responsible Gambling last month. With this donation, BetMGM sought to fund two research projects to “prevent and address potential risks associated with gambling.”
This is important news for NJ online casino players as well as players across the United States and the world. Investing in risk prevention associated with gambling is crucial.
“These research projects are critical to the continued success of the industry and are in the best interest of our guests, company, employees, and the communities where we operate,” said Stephen Martino, Senior Vice President & Chief Compliance Officer of MGM Resorts. “We’re pleased to continue our financial support of the ICRG and its critical work around responsible gaming best practices.”
The ICGR Salutes MGM for its Move
The International Center for Responsible Gaming (ICGR) was established in 1996 and has “become a prominent funding source in responsible gaming and problem gambling research, yielding articles published in peer-reviewed scientific journals,” per the press release.
“We salute MGM Resorts for supporting our research that will answer the many questions we have about the impact of gender on gambling disorder and address the health risks of casino employees. The ICRG is very grateful for the company’s long-standing and continuing support of the ICRG,” said Arthur Paikowsky, ICGR President.
Along with this donation, BetMGM has continued to train its 60,000+ employees on the “benefits and risks associated with gambling.”
BetMGM is available in 28 markets today and offers responsible gaming tools on their platforms.
