"We really wanted to find a way to reward our players, business partners, and loyal philanthropic organizations. This was the best way to incorporate all of them into one big event!" says Dream Dealers founder Jeff Geller. | |||||
The Dream Dealers helped raise over a million dollars in the past 12 months. At some events, the casino gaming or poker was the main attraction for raising funds. At other events, the Dream Dealers were providing first class entertainment before a high-value live auction or featured headliner performed. Either way, the Dream Dealers were invited to participate because of their top-of-the-line equipment and beautiful, yet skilled dealers. | |||||
