Okay, BINGO fans, gather ’round. It’s time to grab your daubers and get ready for your next challenge: a BINGO fundraiser to benefit the Dream Factory of Rochester, an organization that grants dreams for kids living with critical and chronic illnesses.
The event, scheduled for Saturday, May 9, is being organized by Webster Thomas High School senior Ella Buss as her National Honor Society senior project. It’s a cause that’s near and dear to her heart. She’s battled chronic Lyme disease since she was six years old, and in 2018, Dream Factory gave her family a welcome respite and reasons to smile when they sent her and her entire family to Universal Studios, Disney and SeaWorld.
Ella wrote,
The organization means a lot to me and my whole family, as my mom served on the board for a number of years prior to my dream. The work they do is truly inspiring, and giving back through a community event felt like the only way to show my gratitude for the impact they have made on me and this community.
The BINGO event is scheduled for Sunday, May 9 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Klem South Elementary School, 1025 Klem Rd., Webster. In addition to the games, there’ll be pizza, prizes and raffles.
Tickets are $15 for kids, $25 for adults and $75 for immediate families. Click here for more information and to purchase tickets. Your donation will help make sure that many more kids have the kind of opportunity that Ella had.
