Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Biloxi donated 636 sets of linens to local organizations throughout the Mississippi Gulf Coast on Friday in support of Hard Rock's philanthropic motto "Take Time to Be Kind." Five organizations will benefit from these linens which include The Salvation Army, Back Bay Mission, Humane Society of South Mississippi, Homes of Grace, and Women’s Center for Non Violence.

"Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Biloxi’s heart rocks!” said Major Will Cundiff of the Salvation Army. “You will never know how much this helps, we truly appreciate this."

The linen donation came about when Hard Rock Biloxi received new linens for their guest rooms. Instead of throwing away the current stock, which is in pristine condition, the decision was made to give back. Said Duncan McKenzie, President and General Manager of Hard Rock Biloxi, “We are always looking for ways that we can help, and when this opportunity arose we thought it would be the perfect way to Take Time to Be Kind and serve our community organizations."
