FUNDRAISER

Greenpanther is pleased to announce a limited time fundraiser on behalf of Alliance. At Greenpanther, we were celebrating our parents 55th weddining anniversary. It is difficult to know what to give or how to celebrate when we were all all in different locations. Based on that challenge, the idea of a scavenger hunt style bingo game was born. The theme was coffee - something they drink everyday. We created a list of 55 different coffee-inspired beverages to commemorate the event. Some items were items from their favorite coffee places but a style they never tried. Some items were based on their friends and families favorite drinks. Other were inspired by travels. To our surprise, we began to receive requests. Others wanted to know how they could get their own bingo card. Afters searching the internet and not seeing anyone offering really the same experience, we decided to try to have a fundraiser for our partner Alliance. They are doing wonderful work in their community in Bagamoyo, Tanzania, and we thought this might be a great way of supporting them. We will offer this until we meet our fundraising goal of $6000 or April 1, 2026.

So, have a special event or person that you want to recognize but not sure what to get them or do? Consider a celebration bingo - a unique scavenger hunt bingo card by Alliance. This is a fundraiser for Alliance to support its programs in Tanzania.

What is Celebration Bingo?

It is a scavenger hunt with 25 items on a bingo card. The items are created around a particular theme that reflects the special event or person(s) that you want to celebrate. The items are thoughtfuly and curated by a real person to create a unique experience to celebrate.

It only has one rule: Have fun and embrace your adventurous spirit. Although its recommended rules do encourage the recruitment of family and friends to help you complete the cards and join in the fun.
