ANAHEIM : Bingo Proposed as School Fund-Raiser
Esperanza High School parents displeased with traditional fund-raising methods for extracurricular school groups are proposing an easier way to come up with needed money: bingo nights.
Already, schools throughout the county regularly hold nonprofit bingo events, which ease the pressure of selling candy or washing cars to pay for sports team trips or choir shows. Parents say that holding bingo nights would require less work and could make more money than other fund-raising activities.
No school in the Placentia Unified School District has bingo nights. The school board is expected to consider the proposal at a meeting Tuesday.
