As the 2023 year comes to a close, Horseshoe Indianapolis is distributing funds from a special option utilized by guests on the casino floor.

The NRT Technology kiosks provide an option for guests when cashing out to earmark any winnings to charity. As a result, a total of $32,815.10 this fall has been earmarked to Especially Kidz, located in Shelbyville.

Especially Kidz has a long-standing relationship with Horseshoe Indianapolis. Over the past few years, the company’s team members made numerous trips to the facility that focuses on the care of physically challenged kids and young adults with 24-hour skilled nursing care. The outdoor atrium area received a complete renovation, adding outdoor space for families and residents to utilize during visits. This year, Especially Kidz was included as one of the recipients for the charitable giving option on casino floor kiosks.

“To be able to contribute these funds donated by our guests to such a worthwhile organization is a tremendous opportunity for Horseshoe Indianapolis,” said Trent McIntosh, Senior Vice President and General Manager. “Especially Kidz is managed by a group of extremely dedicated workers who provide such an important service to our community. We are glad we can be a small part of delivering much-needed support to their organization.”

A group of Horseshoe Indianapolis team members stopped by Especially Kidz to deliver the check from the proceeds of the charitable option Friday, Dec. 1. They were joined by several members of the care giving staff in receipt of the donation.
