The John Hancock Demonstration School in Northeast Philadelphia is hosting a “Family Bingo Night” on Wednesday, March 29, 2023. This evening is a social event for the school’s families that will serve as a fundraiser to benefit the drama club in its spring performance of “The Wizard of Oz Youth Edition.” Production costs for the show can reach as high as $10,000, and this is where we can use your help.

We would like to have a raffle of items available at this “Bingo Night” for our guests to purchase. With your donation, we will be able to sell ticket chances for various themed baskets. In previous years, our raffle was able to raise over $1,000 for the drama club and we are hoping to surpass that this year.

We thank you for considering our request and for helping make our fundraiser a success. You will not only be supporting our drama club, but also acknowledge the importance of extra-curricular activities such as sports, performing arts, and cultural awareness in our public schools. Former President Obama said it best: “The future belongs to young people with an education and the imagination to create.” Your support helps us give them the tools they need to become successful citizens of tomorrow.
