The MGM MIRAGE Voice
Foundation is currently celebrating its fifth year of service to the
community. The Voice Foundation is MGM MIRAGE's nonprofit, philanthropic
entity that collects and disperses employee donations to deserving
charities and causes where its employees live and work.
    Annually, the Voice Foundation conducts fundraising campaigns at each
of the company's properties. The first campaign in 2002 raised $2 million.
To date, employees have contributed more than $12 million to the foundation
allowing MGM MIRAGE to provide more than 1.8 million hours of after-school
tutoring and educational programs to children; serve more than 2.5 million
meals to families, homebound clients and seniors; and support more than
1,000 nonprofit organizations in Nevada, Michigan and Mississippi, just to
name a few.
    Currently, the Voice Foundation is in the midst of its annual campaign
of which the properties of the former Mandalay Resort Group (MRG) are
participating for the first time. Last year, MRG merged with MGM MIRAGE,
increasing the company's workforce from 40,000 to 70,000 employees.
    To encourage employee participation, several property presidents have
made promises relative to their campaign goals. Tom Mikulich, Treasure
Island President and COO, has promised to jump off the mast of the pirate
ship in the property's Sirens' Cove; Bill Hornbuckle, Mandalay Bay
President and COO, has pledged to swim with sharks at Mandalay Bay's Shark
Reef attraction; and Randy Morton, Monte Carlo President and COO, will
participate in an illusion with magician Lance Burton.
    "The enthusiasm property presidents have shown is a direct reflection
of the excitement employees feel during the annual Voice campaigns," said
Merlinda Gallegos, MGM MIRAGE Director of Corporate Philanthropy. "This
passion, demonstrated by all members of our company, has helped make the
MGM MIRAGE Voice Foundation a tremendous success."
    The MGM MIRAGE Voice Foundation was established to support employees
who strive to improve the quality of life in the communities in which they
live. Through the Voice Foundation, employees are able to direct their
donations to a preferred charity; donate to the Employee Emergency Relief
Fund that helps fellow employees during emergency situations; contribute to
the local United Way; or give to the Voice Community Fund, which supports
grants to non profit agencies that are selected by a group of MGM MIRAGE
employees who make up the Community Voice Council (CVC).
    The CVC is composed of MGM MIRAGE employees who are selected to serve
based on their community commitment and workplace experience. Members
attend monthly meetings, review grant applications, recommend amounts and
agencies for funding and conduct follow-up visits with local agencies to
ensure that donations are used wisely.
    MGM MIRAGE underwrites all administrative costs associated with
operating and managing the Voice Foundation, ensuring that 100 percent of
employee donations go to the intended recipients. The Voice Foundation's
annual campaign concludes this summer.
