You’re Not Alone in Your Concern

We have seen firsthand the devastation that predatory gambling inflicts on individuals, families, and entire communities. As America’s most-neglected major problem, we understand the depth of human suffering that’s already happened and the oncoming tidal wave of suffering about to hit if we don’t act. Our nation’s young people are especially in danger.

We have been unyielding in the fight against the spread of commercialized gambling for over 30 years and are the only national organization working to reveal the truth behind gambling operators. Our calling is to advocate for citizens and communities who have suffered harm, to prevent more victims, and to champion policy reforms that stop predatory gambling.

Our Promise to You

One, we offer you the promise of transformation that comes from sacrificing your time, talent, and treasure to change the lives of others.

And two, we promise to provide complete transparency to our supporters regarding how their donations are being used in the fight to stop predatory gambling. As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organization, we post all of our annual IRS Form 990 filings on our website so they are always available to our donors.

The virtue of thrift, defined as a wise and careful manager of one’s money, the opposite of commercialized gambling, is a core value of our organization and is reflected in how we use our resources.
