LAS VEGAS, May 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Meridianbet, a prominent subsidiary of Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), a leading B2B and B2C gaming technology company, today announced its active involvement in the global coalition initiative for flood relief efforts in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. This collaboration is a significant part of Meridianbet’s commitment to supporting communities devastated by recent severe flooding in this Brazilian state.

Meridianbet Leads Flood Relief Efforts as Part of Golden Matrix Group

Meridianbet, under the umbrella of Golden Matrix Group, is spearheading this initiative as part of the gaming industry’s larger collaboration with local NGOs and humanitarian organizations. This effort is a testament to Meridianbet’s robust CSR portfolio, which includes over 225 community impact campaigns conducted last year alone.

The past week has witnessed unprecedented rainfall in Rio Grande do Sul, turning streets into rivers and isolating entire towns. The current situation remains dire, with hundreds of individuals still unaccounted for, while rescue operations have successfully evacuated over 200,000 residents using boats and helicopters.

The floods have wreaked havoc on infrastructure, with numerous bridges destroyed, severely disrupting access to Porto Alegre. The aftermath of the disaster has also led to looting in supermarkets during the night, adding to the urgency of the relief efforts.
