The 1st Annual Snohomish County Gay Bingo “Sno-Homo Bingo” donates 100% of the fundraising efforts to two Snohomish County GLBTQ organizations.
GLOBE – GLBTQ (gay, lesbian, bi, transgendered & questioning) Loving Ourselves, Becoming Empowered, an organization supporting GLBTQ youth who are 14 to 20 years of age. GLOBE empowers youth to make healthy decisions by enhancing their knowledge, self-esteem and pride. They have a weekly meeting that hosts guest speakers, fun events and opportunities for youth to share in a safe and welcoming place.
APSC – AIDS Project Snohomish County has provided several fundraising events within Snohomish county, such as the Snohomish County AIDS Walk, Dine In/Art Auction and Act Locally, Act Globally for AIDS. Although these avenues have helped with some fundraising goals, the APSC continues to seek additional support from donors as well as public awareness. APSC is a non-profit 501c3 organization with no paid staff and its Board of Directors is comprised of volunteers.
