ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER. Many hands can make big things happen. Like preventing hunger. MGM Resorts played a central role in founding Three Square, a central food bank in Southern Nevada. Its contributions help feed more than 137,000 individuals each month. That’s more than 1.6 million pounds of food per year. Over 1,300 community nonprofits, faith-based organizations, schools, businesses and government agencies have come together to feed the community.
