Guests enjoyed dinner, an open bar and an exciting selection of casinostyle games, including poker, blackjack, roulette and craps. The evening also featured silent and live auctions, a photo booth and opportunities for guests to come together in support of a lifesaving cause. Proceeds from Casino Night supported the 4ShayJ Foundation’s mission to prevent childhood head injuries through helmet-safety education and the distribution of properly fitted helmets. Through its school assemblies and community outreach programs, the foundation teaches children why wearing a helmet matters and provides helmets to children at no cost. For more than a decade, the 4ShayJ Foundation has worked closely with schools, families and community partners throughout the Coachella Valley and beyond. The organization has distributed more than 50,000 helmets and delivered vital safety education to hundreds of thousands of children. The success of Casino Night was made possible through the generosity of the foundation’s sponsors, donors, volunteers and guests. Supporters including Grace Electric, Coachella Valley Foot and Ankle, and The Exception helped make the evening possible and demonstrated their commitment to protecting local children. Every sponsorship, auction purchase and donation made during the event helped the foundation continue reaching students with important helmet-safety education and free protective equipment. The 4ShayJ Foundation extends its sincere appreciation to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered or partnered with the organization. Casino Night was more than an evening of games and celebration—it was an investment in the safety and well-being of children throughout the community. With the continued support of the Coachella Valley, the 4ShayJ Foundation looks forward to expanding its programs, reaching more schools and placing even more properly fitted helmets into the hands of children who need them. The excitement continues as the 4ShayJ Foundation prepares for its next Cards for a Cause Casino Night on February 27, 2027, at the Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa in Indian Wells. Guests are invited to save the date and join us for another unforgettable evening supporting the foundation’s mission to provide children throughout the Coachella Valley with properly fitted bicycle helmets and vital safety education. www.4shayj.com 4ShayJ Foundation’s CASINO Night SAVE THE Date FEB. 27, 2027 Raises Support for Children’s Helmet Safety
