Burlingame, CA and Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) March 20, 2014 -- PLAYSTUDIOS announced today that it would again help to raise awareness and funds for ONE DROP USA. This innovative nonprofit develops infrastructure projects in areas that lack reliable access to clean, safe water. By improving the availability of this life-giving resource, ONE DROP helps to alleviate global poverty, and bring security and dignity to the communities in which it works.
By reaching out to the millions of myVEGAS players and Facebook fans, PLAYSTUDIOS is helping to raise awareness and funds for ONE DROP USA. myVEGAS players now have the chance to use their in-game Loyalty Points to redeem tickets to the show One Night for ONE DROP, or to make a direct donation to the organization. Additionally, PLAYSTUDIOS will donate a portion of this week’s myVEGAS chip sales to ONE DROP.
“Everyone knows that Cirque du Soleil is a wildly creative organization, and we’ve been very fortunate to have them as a partner,” said Andrew Pascal, founder, president and chief executive officer of PLAYSTUDIOS. “But they’re also wonderful world citizens. Their ONE DROP organization and the One Night for ONE DROP benefit performance carries Cirque’s creative energy into the philanthropic realm. We salute this inspiring effort and are again lending our voice to this important cause.”
In celebration of World Water Day on March 22, Cirque du Soleil will present One Night for ONE DROP. This original production will feature more than 230 Cirque du Soleil artists and guest performers. myVEGAS players can redeem regular and VIP tickets to the event using their Loyalty Points.
