Family BINGO Night Was a Smashing Success!
On Friday, January 24th, 2025 the District 39 Educational Foundation hosted a fun-filled evening that brought together over 200 enthusiastic game lovers.
The event was full of energy, thanks to our incredible MC, Mr. Dave Lundy, who kept the crowd laughing and cheering with every “BINGO!” call. Generous donations from both participants and local businesses allowed winners to enjoy a wide range of exciting prizes. A special shoutout to Lou Malnati’s for providing the delicious pizza and salads that everyone enjoyed!
Thanks to everyone’s support, we raised nearly $5,000, which will go directly toward funding new and innovative educational programs for District 39 students.
A big thank you to the D39 community for helping make this event such a success!
