AHL Poker will give $250.00 to any of the following Charities you choose if you hit a Royal Flush during any AHL Event!

American Red Cross
www.redcross.org

Since its founding in 1881 by visionary leader Clara Barton, the American Red Cross has been the nation's premier emergency response organization. As part of a worldwide movement that offers neutral humanitarian care to the victims of war, the American Red Cross distinguishes itself by also aiding victims of devastating natural disasters. Over the years, the organization has expanded its services, always with the aim of preventing and relieving suffering.

ASPCA (American Society for Provention of Cruelty to Animals)
www.aspca.org

The ASPCA was the first humane organization in the Western Hemisphere. Their mission, as stated by the founder, Henry Bergh, in 1866, is “to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States.”

Boys and Girls Club of America
www.bgca.org

In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.

Boys & Girls Clubs offer that and more. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence.

Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow – all while having fun. They are truly The Positive Place For Kids.

Fossil Rim Wildlife Center
www.fossilrim.org

The first facility of its kind to be accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), Fossil Rim Wildlife Center participates in a worldwide network of wildlife conservation organizations working to restore the delicate balance between people, animals and the environment. Fossil Rim’s ~1700 acres is home to around 1000 individual animals, belonging to 50 different native and exotic species. Please refer the AZA website and learn about the many conservation efforts of accredited North American zoological institutions. You will find that all of the endangered and threatened species that Fossil Rim works with are actually part of a much larger conservation effort. Many threatened and endangered animals in AZA facilities are managed under two types of programs, Species Survival Plans and Population Management Plans. Both were created to manage and conserve select ex situ species populations with cooperation from AZA institutions across North America.

Hopes Door
www.hopesdoorinc.org

Hope's Door is a shelter and counseling center that offers comprehensive programs and services that are designed to help break the cycle of domestic abuse. Hope's Door provides direct intervention and prevention services to Texas families affected by domestic abuse in Collin County, Dallas County, and surrounding areas.

National Kidney Foundation

The National Kidney Foundation, a major voluntary nonprofit health organization, is dedicated to preventing kidney and urinary tract diseases, improving the health and well-being of individuals and families affected by kidney disease and increasing the availability of all organs for transplantation.

North Texas Food Bank
www.ntfb.org

The North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) is a nonprofit hunger relief organization that distributes donated, purchased and prepared foods through a network of 1,146 feeding programs in 13 North Texas counties. The NTFB supports the nutritional needs of children, families and seniors through education, advocacy and strategic partnerships. Close the Gap is the NTFB’s 3-year initiative to unite the community to narrow the food gap by providing access to 50 million meals annually by 2011.
