Mecca Bigno raises money for Wizz-kidz

Written by rhea on July 29, 2009. Posted in Bingo News

Mecca Bingo has launched a new campaign to convert old coins and left over foreign coins from a holiday  into much needed funds for young wheelchair users. The fund raising campaign is called ‘The Currency for Kidz scheme’ and aims at encouraging people to bring any old or foreign coins to the bingo clubs at Brookdale Place, Chester or Marina Drive, Ellesmere Port the club. These coins will then be donated to Mecca’s charity of the year, Whizz-Kidz.

Bernie Dullaghan the general manager of Mecca Harlow said: “Whenever you come back from a summer holiday it always seems like you have a pocket full of leftover foreign coins. The banks won’t take them but, until the end of September, we’re accepting any foreign or old coins as a donation for Whizz-Kidz – all money raised will go to deserving kids in the region.” 

Indeed, this is a novel way of getting rid of foreign coins picked up on trips abroad and at the same time you are doing your bit for a wonderful cause. Your little help will go a long way to support the independence of young wheelchair-users in local communities.

Ruth Owen, said: “We are absolutely thrilled with the enthusiasm and inventiveness of all Mecca Bingo team and club members in raising money to support young wheelchair-users’ independence.” She further appealed: “Disabled children stand virtually no chance of getting a powered wheelchair on the NHS. Through Mecca Bingo’s funding of powered and manual wheelchairs and training, more children now have the opportunities previously denied them. Please help us raise even more money to make real differences to young lives.”

Mecca Bingo has been dedicated to fundraising for young wheelchair-users in local communities.  Last year Mecca raised more than £280,000 for Whizz-Kidz. The fundraisers are confident of much more in 2009. Visit the Mecca Bingo site to learn more.
