Mirror Bingo for Charity
30th May, 2008
Bingo gaming can be more than another game where you buy your cards and hope to win the jackpot prize money at some point. The sooner and more frequent this happens, the better. And just like any game, an individual will need to play more often to increase the chances of hitting the pot. It’s similar to a lottery but instead of just betting on a set of numbers and wait for the winning combination to be announced, you get the opportunity to listen to the numbers as they are called out and hope that the winning pattern shows on your card. But if you want to put more meaning to bingo gaming, you may want to take part in Mirror Bingo’s fund raising event for charity.
Background on Children with Leukemia Charity
On February 1987, 14-year old Paul O’Gorman passed away due to leukemia. While still alive the young teen begged his father and mother to help children on the same plight. This gave birth to the beginnings of the charity named Children with Leukemia which was founded in his name. Thanks to the effort of his parents, this request paved the way for other children with leukemia to have a fighting chance at surviving the disease.
Massive Event for Beneficiaries with Leukemia
On May 28, 2008, Mirror Bingo went ahead with their plans to raise money to provide aid to the charity organization Children with Leukemia. Some celebrities have pledged their support by joining the bingo rooms which includes Fiona Philips of GMTV, Carol Vorderman of Countdown and TV personality Linda Robinson.
The presence of these celebrities was intended to raise awareness and participation in this one-time event. The pleasure and excitement of getting the chance to chat or even playing against these celebrities can be very thrilling. And bingo players can get this privilege without having to pay extra for joining this event but Mirror Bingo pledges to donate the profits of the day to this charity. The same goes for the possible winnings one may get which means the winners gets no less than the amount posted on the site.
Although the event has passed and you may have missed it, you can continue to be on the look out for similar events next time around. By doing so, you are helping make online bingo gaming more than just like any other game in pursuit of big money.
