Harrah's Foundation sponsors GLAAD awards
"Harrah's Foundation is proud to continue its support of GLAAD," said Executive Director of Harrah's Foundation Thom Reilly. "Harrah's recognizes that GLAAD plays a vital role to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. Our company is also committed to respecting and including diverse viewpoints, and believes that our success truly relies on our ability to better serve our customers, employees, business partners and communities in a fair and inclusive way."
The GLAAD Media Awards recognizes and honors media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the (LGBT) community and the issues that affect their lives. Awards are presented to openly lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender media professionals who have made a significant difference in promoting equal rights for the (LGBT) community.
"The Harrah's Foundation has been a generous sponsor," said GLAAD President Neal G. Giulino. "We appreciate their contribution to keep our initiative ongoing for a fair environment for LGBT members to live, work and play."
The Harrah's Foundation is also a national sponsor and active partner of diverse LGBT organizations such as the Human Rights Campaign, the National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association and the International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association.
