Casino Del Sol

While the temporary closure remains in effect, Casino Del Sol is doing everything they can to help the local community. Starting Monday, April 20, the culinary staff prepared and delivered lunches to local Tucson hospitals. Over six days they served more than 3,000 healthcare workers at five hospitals as well as multiple Pascua Yaqui Tribe public service departments.

“Supporting our local community, especially those on the front lines, during this uncertain and difficult time is of the utmost importance to us at Casino Del Sol,” said CEO of Casino Del Sol, Kimberly Van Amburg. “We must all come together and do everything we can to help those who are making sacrifices for us. They are so busy caring for others, they don’t even have time to stop and grab lunch, so we brought lunch to them.”

Freshly prepared lunches were delivered to St. Mary’s Hospital, St. Joseph's Hospital, Tucson Medical Center, Banner - University Medical Center Tucson, Banner - University Medical Center South, El Rio Community Health Center and Pascua Yaqui Tribe Facilities Management Department and Police and Fire Departments.
