Applied Innovation, a prominent technology company based in Grand Rapids, is delighted to unveil its highly anticipated fifth annual philanthropic extravaganza: Casino Royale. This premier event will extend its support to the Children\u2019s Healing Center, a distinguished nonprofit organization within the local Grand Rapids community. Having achieved remarkable success in the past, with last year\u2019s fundraiser raising a total of $33,000, this year\u2019s event aims to surpass that achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cInspired by an idea from years ago, this event lets us unite with clients and staff while backing a cause vital to our community,\u201d remarked Casey Lowery, COO of Applied Innovation. \u201cSupporting Children\u2019s Healing Center resonates deeply \u2013 that\u2019s why we keep this great initiative alive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Children\u2019s Healing Center, a year-round recreational hub designed exclusively for children with weakened immune systems, offers a diverse array of research-driven play, socialization, and learning programs. The center welcomes all children from birth to 26 years who are immunocompromised along with their families. The center\u2019s central objective is to provide a haven for families to experience the transformative power of play, foster connections, and cultivate a sense of belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melissa Block, director of growth and development at CHC, expressed her gratitude by saying, \u201cWe are thrilled to come together with Applied Innovation for the fifth consecutive year at the Casino Royale charity event. Beyond being a cherished vendor partner, they have consistently championed our cause. Through this event, made possible by the kindness of the Applied Innovation community, we\u2019re opening our doors for even more families who have a child with a weak immune system. They get to dive into a community of fun and friendships, all within a safe and clean environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark your calendars for Thursday, Sept. 28 at 6:30 p.m., as Casino Royale comes alive at the Applied Innovation headquarters, located at 5555 Glenwood Hills Parkway SE, Grand Rapids, Michigan, 49512. This evening of elegance and excitement will encompass a variety of popular casino games such as blackjack, craps, roulette, and Texas hold \u2018em, accompanied by cocktails and hors d\u2019oeuvres. Attendees will have the chance to win a variety of prizes, including a one-night downtown stay inclusive of dinner and a concert, a Yeti cooler, an exotic car rental experience, a cutting-edge 50\u201d TV, a 2-hour captained boat cruise, and so much more.
