MGM Resorts International's Beau Rivage Named Red Cross' Corporate Partner of the Year

“Beau Rivage was selected as this year’s Corporate Partner of the Year in recognition of the support the Beau has given to the American Red Cross Southeast Mississippi Chapter in a number of ways, from board leadership and employee volunteer work, to the support for the Red Cross RendezVIEW and, for the past seven years, the Moonlight & Magnolias Gala, which is our biggest fundraiser of the year,” said Red Cross Southeast Mississippi Chapter Executive Director John McFarland. “Together the Red Cross and Beau Rivage have raised more than a half-million dollars for this chapter with this event alone.
