Twin River Casino hosted “Cocktails for a Cause” on September 26 to raise funds for the millions of people impacted by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. The event raised $16,000 for One America Appeal’s Hurricane Relief Fund, a joint appeal by all five living, former American Presidents to encourage citizens to support recovery efforts from the recent hurricanes. The event featured music, raffles, appetizers and cocktails poured by guest bartenders. One hundred percent of the proceeds raised from raffles, guest donations and the sale of beverage products were donated to One America Appeal.
