What a fun day today was! Tampa Pride, along with 50 other Tampa Bay charities, was invited to the Seminole Hard Rock Casino for a surprise event. 7 of us from Tampa Pride suited up and headed over, not having any idea what to expect. We were treated to a great buffet breakfast of hot food or pastries, then a fun presentation by America’s Got Talent artist David Garibaldi. Finally, 50 employees gathered on the stage with large cards. When they turned them around, they were $10,000 checks for all 50 charities!!! Wow!! Tampa Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino gave back to our community $500,000!!!! Thank you, Tampa Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino!
