SAN DIEGO, Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sycuan Casino Resort proudly presented a $150,000 donation to Big Table San Diego. Big Table is a local non-profit organization that supports workers in the hospitality and restaurant industry. Just this year alone, the organization has helped hundreds of workers in critical need of assistance.

"Little did we know when we launched in San Diego last year, that the industry that we cared for would be so heavily impacted," said Jesse Vigil, city director at Big Table San Diego. "For us all to come together as a community to share hope and light in such a dark time is beautiful and that would be an understatement. We are beyond grateful for Sycuan's support and the impact this gift will have on so many lives."
