That depends on the casino and what state you are in. As far as casinos on reservations, yes, they do give to charity and to local schools and offer scholarships and things like that. Most casinos have a web site, just go to that casinos site to see what they all do in the community. Otherwise I would recommend the National Indian Gaming Association, this organization would have that information.

I'm not sure, but i doubt it. even if they did it would be a tiny amount of their profits and it would only be to help them save face. casinos are only there to take peoples money, nothing else. people who operate casinos are very aware that if they open a casino in a new location, the population of that area will have their suicide rate double. they know this, yet they still operate. they could give millions to charity and i will still see them for the scumbags they really are. if you want to gamble, do a poker game with your friends or take part in a raffle that really does support schools/charitys, dont support casinos they dont give a **** about anyone but themselves.
