About
Casino revenues have helped the Mille Lacs Band build and improve schools, health care facilities, community centers, a water treatment facility, roads, ceremonial buildings and more. Millions of dollars have also been donated to food shelves, schools, hospitals, law enforcement agencies, and other organizations that serve the entire community. In addition, the casinos have attracted new residents to the area and dramatically boosted tourism, which has resulted in dozens of new businesses across the region.
