Epic fundraising from music bingo night at Jaga Jaga Bar

Published on 04 July 2024

Our staff and community members came together for an epic music bingo, pizza and live entertainment night at Jaga Jaga Bar in Greensborough to raise funds for our local charities.

The $5 ticket fee covered entry and was donated to the Banyule Community Fund, supporting local charities, particularly in high-need areas like Emergency Relief, Homelessness, Mental Health, and Food Insecurity.

The event raised $858 in one night! That's enough for 650 food parcels for vulnerable Banyule families through the Banyule Support and Information Centre in Heidelberg West.

Said our Community Development Fund Officer Catherine Corbett, “The music bingo, live entertainment and pizza were a huge hit. People sang along, laughed and enjoyed each other’s company while supporting important causes.”

Due to popular demand, the event will be hosted twice per year. Stay tuned for the next one.
