YSB Bingo Fundraiser Tuesday

Youth as Resources, a youth-led philanthropic program of the Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau, will be hosting their annual Bingo fundraising event! Prizes will include Longaberger baskets, Vera Bradley items and more!

This bingo event is a crucial fundraiser as it finances the Youth as Resources grant pool for much of the year. The event will take place in the community room of the Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau on Tuesday, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.

Tickets are $15 at the door. Extra bingo cards can be purchased for $5. Concessions will be available. You must be 18 to play.

All proceeds benefit the local community through grants and awards to youth volunteer organizations. These organizations need funding to complete projects that benefit people in the community and the community as a whole. Local youth groups receive funding by filling out grant applications. Youth as Resources may grant up to $500 per project. Some of our previous grants include a project to aid teenage mothers, care packages to soldiers serving in Iraq, providing funds to get canned foods for FISH food pantry, and supplies to make blankets for Riley Hospital. 

The YSB is still looking for sponsors and / or door prizes. If your business would like to sponsor a basket or bag, provide door prizes or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Youth as Resources Coordinator, Cameron Cole, at 362-0694 Ext. 114 or by email at cameron@mcysb.org
