The 10th annual Ante4Autism charity poker tournament, which takes place the day before the official opening of the Las Vegas Market, has added seven sponsors.
Heading the newest sponsor group is the High Risk Pregnancy Center of Las Vegas, which signed up as a $2,500 Platinum sponsor for the second straight year.
Other new sponsors are Roger Magowitz, Corsicana Mattress and Malouf, who are $1,000 Gold sponsors; and Gary Fazio, David Deye and Jones Fiber, who are the newest $500 Silver sponsors.
“We want to thank all of our sponsors for their generosity at this very special holiday time of the year”, said Jerry Williams, a co-host of the event.
The tournament, which begins at 7 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 27 at the Golden Nugget, will benefit five autism-related charities: The Paula and Anthony Rich Center for Autism at Youngstown State University, Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities at Touro University Nevada, Nationwide Children’s Hospital Columbus - Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders, Autism Speaks, and the National Autism Association – Southeast Ohio Chapter (NAASEO).
In addition to the new sponsors, Williams said the following companies have donated merchandise for a silent auction or contributed to the logistics for the event: Malouf, Huffman Koos, Visionary Sleep, Leggett & Platt, Al Adler, The Layout Company, Retail Marketing Group, Dan Phillips and Serta.
Sponsorships and donations will be accepted until the day of the tournament, but event founder Doug Krinsky said sponsorships completed by Dec. 31 will be included on event signage, table felts and the sponsorship plaque.
