The Jackson Rancheria Casino Resort has recently donated $10,000 to the
Calaveras Community Foundation. The 2012 contribution was a special
commemorative donation on behalf of Margaret Dalton who established the Rancheria
in 1985 and who maintained a determined commitment to support the local
community and non-profit organizations in both Amador and Calaveras County.
2012’s donation is also in memory of Allen Breed a longtime Foundation
Board member who developed the partnership between the Jackson Rancheria Casino
Resort and the Calaveras Community Foundation.
“It is our pleasure to continue the wonderful partnership between the
Calaveras Community Foundation and the Rancheria,” said Rich Hoffman, CEO. “Tribal
Chairwoman Margaret Dalton had a special interest in the underprivileged in
Calaveras County who are the very individuals the Foundation strives to help.
In memory of the late Ms. Dalton, the Jackson Rancheria Tribal Council is
pleased to grant this year’s donation on her behalf.”

help the Calaveras Community Foundation bridge the gap for those in need in
these tough economic times,” said, Paul Stein, the Philanthropy Coordinator for
the Foundation. “We are especially grateful to be honoring past board member
emeritus Allen Breed who initiated the tremendous partnership between the

assistance.”
