The House may always win—but on April 18, 2026, the real winner was the Burbank community.

Rotary Club of Burbank Noon’s Casino Night Fundraiser brought together an incredible crowd for an evening filled with fun, friendship, and generosity. Thanks to the overwhelming support of our guests, sponsors, volunteers, and hosts, the event was a tremendous success.

 

A heartfelt thank-you goes to everyone who attended and contributed to the cause. Our sponsors went all in to support our community, helping make a meaningful impact through their partnership. We’re also grateful to our dedicated volunteers—including President Cynthia Wagner, board members, foundation leaders, and club members—whose hard work ensured a seamless and memorable evening.
