and are available to our employees who are striving to grow
within the company. 
Whether through brick and mortar projects or 
initiatives that support at-risk youths and deserving 
senior citizens, MGM MIRAGE is a proud contributor
to hundreds of worthwhile causes. 
In 2004, our employees contributed more than $3
million to help improve the quality of life for others. 
Of this amount, employees raised a record-breaking 
$2.7 million to benefit more than 400 charities in
southern Nevada alone. These funds were collected 
and distributed by the MGM MIRAGE Voice
Foundation, the company’s nonprofit, philanthropic arm
established three years ago to encourage and empower
employee giving. 
With hundreds of organizations benefiting from
our employees’ generosity, MGM MIRAGE absorbs 
all administrative costs associated with operating and
managing the Voice Foundation, resulting in 100 
percent of our employee contributions going directly 
to charities. Additionally, employees are able to choose
qualified grant recipients to receive the funding. Since
its founding, employees have raised more than $8 million
to support deserving nonprofit organizations. 
Through the "Dollars for Doers" program, also
administered by the Voice Foundation, the company
provides grants to eligible organizations in which our
employees volunteer their time.
Employee giving achieved
momentous results last
year. While contributions
to the Voice Foundation
reached record amounts,
MGM MIRAGE employees
also provided manpower to
Habitat for Humanity to
build homes for single
working mothers.
