In June 2011, PADRES and Tropicana Las Vegas launched a cause-related partnership to promote pediatric cancer awareness and to provide opportunities to raise supplemental program funding. The first initiative under this partnership included PADRES’ largest fundraising campaign in 2011, “A Weekend of Latin Style & Entertainment,” was highlighted by the annual “El Sueño De Esperanza” gala.
