Gaming officials raise cash for responsible gaming research

Representatives from across the gaming industry recently took to the links at Cascata in Boulder City to raise money to support research on gambling and responsible gambling education.

The 13th annual Association of Gaming Equipment Manufacturers/ American Gaming Association Golf Classic presented by JCM Global raised $100,000 for the National Center for Responsible Gambling.

“Our job at the NCRG is to fund groundbreaking research in the field of gambling disorders and advance awareness about the importance of responsible gaming,” said Glenn Christenson, chairman of the NCRG.

With this year’s total included, the event has raised nearly $950,000 in its 13-year history.
