Showing backers from casinos

Background info: OSD has been getting donations from casinos over the last year and we talked about what kind of orgs we wanted to get funding from.

We want to try to have the casinos not show up on our github and our website via widgets.

We agreed to remove the casinos from github Jan has figured this out
