Fallston, MD (July 11, 2024) – The Humane Society of Harford County (HSHC) is hosting a Basket Bingo fundraiser on Friday, August 2 at Level Volunteer Fire Hall, 3633 Level Village Road in Havre de Grace to raise funds for the thousands of animals it shelters each year. This family-friendly event is open to all ages and features themed basket prizes donated by local businesses and animal lovers.
Doors open at 6pm and bingo begins at 7pm. Tickets are $20 in advance and include a packet of 20 games and a chance to win door prizes throughout the evening. Additional Bingo cards, special game cards, and raffles may be purchased at the event. Bring items from HSHC’s wish list and receive a free raffle ticket for each item you bring.

Local businesses and animal lovers can support the animals by sponsoring or donating themed items to fill a basket, gift cards, jewelry, artwork, professional services, tickets to area attractions, etc. Donors will be recognized in the event program.
