Giving Back
THE POWER OF GIVING BACK.
The Augustine Band of Cahuilla Indians has a deep commitment to supporting the community in every way. In addition to its policy of generous giving, the Tribe sponsors an annual Mariachi Festival in the parking lot of Augustine Casino. All of us are dedicated to promoting the cultural relevance of events like these as they are an important vehicle for connecting the community. An annual celebration for which the Tribe is now in its sixth year (skipping only the year of the renovation), the Mariachi Festival takes place every October. The community gathers outside the Tribe’s casino and it’s always a great success.
The Tribe’s donations to charitable organizations total approximately $2,000,000. Add to that $2,000,000 in contributions to the 2015 Avenue 54 roadway improvement project undertaken by the City of Coachella, for a total of $4,000,000 in contributions to improve the community.
The Tribe consistently supports other local tribes and various entities and community organizations to advance their growth.
