Bingo, the game which is being played in the whole world for many centuries, most of the times is viewed as a profit-making gambling tool by almost everybody. From the past centuries many luck-bestowed persons have witnessed a change beyond imagination in their lives due to the whooping amounts they have won in bingo. But as it is very rightly said, ‘charity begins at home’, and the way can be any, provided you have the strong desire in your heart to help those who really need help.
Such is the concept of charity bingo, which aims at collecting the amounts of money for the real causes which are for the good of mankind all over the globe. Charity bingo has really helped in gathering pounds and pounds for the people who are in the real need of cash and other financial needs due to inevitable and emergency problems. There are many private companies, websites, groups, NGOs etc which are running charity bingo for helping the needy persons. So those needy persons can also witness some positive changes in their life which is full of hardships.
Charity bingo in no way works different from the normal bingo game. Participants, along with the ticket prices also need to pay for entrance fee which adds to charity. Here the participant does not win cash amount but some prizes sponsored by the business groups and sponsors. So the excitement which is stuck with the last numbers does not go in vain as you are bound to win one prize or the other. The sponsor is the ultimate decider of the charity which will be benefited with the amount collected through charity bingo.
As it is rightly said that exceptions become the ideal examples for the society, one retired couple who is running charity bingo is of Phyllis and Jim Martin live in Staffordshire. Married since 46 years and both of them being in late 70’s, are running this from 1964. £130,000 is the charity amount which they have gathered with their hard work in the region they live.
In an interview this couple revealed that they are running these bingo nights since the day they attended one of its kind in 1964. Their next bingo night will be aimed at providing charity to the patients of breast cancer.
