This week, the MGM Resorts Global Sales team visited the brand-new state-of-the-art Healing Center by St. Jude’s Ranch for Children to deliver $20,000 in support of this amazing organization and as part of the team’s recent Mindful Matters event series in partnership with Fit City Adventures. The Healing Center is an innovative residential campus that provides critical support to children who are victims of human trafficking, helping them transition from survivors to thriving members of community. “Our goal with the Mindful Matters series was to give our clients meaningful experiences that not only support their well-being but also contribute to the betterment of our community,” said Stephanie Glanzer, CMP, Chief Sales Officer and Senior Vice President at MGM Resorts. “We are proud of the success of the series and that we are able to support the Healing Center by St. Jude’s Ranch for Children and the incredible work they’ll do.” MGM Resorts #YouHaveToBeHere
