Circumstances like escaping an abusive household, loss of a parent and a need to relocate.

Note:
Family and Childrens Services is in no way involved in the planning or organizing of this event. They do not condone or promote gambling of any kind. This money will be donated as a donation from the Miles For Smiles campaign that me and some of my friends initiated to help out in our community. Some representatives from FACS will be in attendance to thank the players for their involvement.
