Our Young Professionals Board is daring friends and family to fill up their BINGO! cards - with the promise to jump into frigid Lake Michigan!
To raise much-needed funds for Chicago youth wrestlers this #GivingTuesday , our Beat the Streets Chicago Young Professionals Board devised a fun game. They each have their own BINGO! card filled 25 squares of donation opportunities. Ranging in dollar amounts from $10 through $100, each square represents something that one of our wrestlers needs: shoes, headgear, tutoring, a healthy meal, etc.
As an added incentive to give, the Young Professionals promise to take the "Polar Plunge" this year if s/he gets a full BINGO! card.
It seems to be working: within a few days, YP had already raised over $4,000 for Chicago youth, with donations continuing to come in as #GivingTuesday and year-end approaches.
