Organizers cancel 2021 BINGO for Breast Cancer event
The Bunko / Bingo volunteer committee has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 BINGO for Breast Cancer event due to the surge in COVID-19 and a lack of registrations.
We always look to raise funds in a meaningful way for the Carson Tahoe Cancer Resource Center that impacts those in our community. When public safety is at risk due to the continued rise of COVID-19 cases, those “FUN”raising efforts need to be postponed to another time.
We want to thank you for your support of the organization and this event as a ticket holder. As you know, Bunko / Bingo for Breast Cancer is our largest annual fundraiser here in the Carson Valley. After not being able to host our fundraiser in 2020 and now again in 2021, your support means more than we can say.
The funds raised from the event go directly to benefiting men and women and their families in our community who are going through cancer or in recovery, by seeking our services. It is for this reason, that we ask you to consider donating the cost of your ticket to our program, 100% of those proceeds go directly to them.
We are in the process of shifting the 2021 event to October 2022. We understand if you’re not in a position to donate, if you’d like to request a refund, please contact Jordan Smoczyk at Jordan.smoczyk@carsontahoe.org.
Please note, refunds will be processed in 10-15 business days. We appreciate your patience as our small staff and team of volunteers work to process requests.
We’d like to thank you again for your support of our programs and fundraiser. If you have any questions, you can contact us at 775-215-1001.
