Caesars Entertainment Renews Commitment to Support Veterans in Las Vegas

Caesars Entertainment Corporation is renewing its commitment to support U.S. servicemen and women through a variety of programs, events and special offers. Caesars Entertainment has been a longtime supporter of veterans through its Enlisting Heroes employment program and other initiatives.

"We are grateful to those who serve our country and take great pride in the programs we have developed over the years to help support veterans," said Mark P. Frissora, President and Chief Executive Officer of Caesars Entertainment. "Our initiatives to hire and train veterans have been extremely successful for our company, and we are proud to extend and celebrate these efforts again this year in recognition of Veterans Day."

Caesars Enlisting Heroes was launched in 2013 and focuses on helping veterans find jobs across Caesars Entertainment. The program has hosted approximately 80 events geared specifically toward the veteran population and hired more than 2,000 veterans in the U.S. Caesars Entertainment has cemented meaningful relationships with community-based veteran groups, veterans' homeless shelters, and the Nevada Department of Veteran Services, which designated Caesars Entertainment a "Green Zone Employer" in appreciation of its efforts to offer veterans stable employment opportunities in 2014.

This year, Caesars Entertainment is recognizing Veterans Day with a variety of programs and initiatives.

• Caesars Entertainment is proud to be the Platinum Sponsor of the Las Vegas Veterans Day Parade on Friday, Nov. 11, the largest such parade west of the Mississippi that draws more than 30,000 attendees. Soldiers and military vehicles will accompany Caesars Entertainment's civilian float, alongside veteran employees and supporters.

• Bally's Las Vegas will once again host several veterans who were injured during their time of service and provide them with VIP treatment including hotel accommodations, care packages, complimentary meals and transportation to the parade.

• Veterans and active military can experience several attractions, as well as entertainment and dining specials at Caesars Entertainment's Las Vegas resorts. Through Caesars Entertainment's partnership with ID.me, veterans, active military and their families are offered year-round discounts and other qualifying reductions on hotel reservations. In addition to any other promotional sales or hotel discount codes applied to the reservation, 10 percent will be deducted off the price of the member's stay year-round. Additionally, in honor of Veterans Day, veterans who verify their identity through ID.me and visit Caesars.com during the dates of Nov. 11-13 to book a future stay will receive a 15 percent total discount.

Caesars Enlisting Heroes

Caesars Entertainment's veteran hiring initiative is a corporate-wide program aimed at providing job opportunities for U.S. Military veterans across all of Caesars Entertainment's resorts. At its foundation, Caesars Enlisting Heroes seeks to harness the skills and aptitudes veterans acquire throughout their military career and apply them to the business world. Hiring managers cite veterans' honor, courage, loyalty, leadership, accountability, drive, and dedication-all highly desirable characteristics for Caesars Entertainment employees. Additionally, the sense of duty and the abilities to analyze, decide, communicate, and motivate make veterans ideal candidates to contribute to the company's overall success.
