HALO Project’s First-Ever Bingo Bash Raises $95,000 to Support Oklahoma Children and Families
Oklahoma City, OK – The HALO Project is proud to announce the success of its inaugural Bingo Bash, held at the historic Oklahoma City Farmers Market in downtown OKC. With a full crowd, lively energy and bar service provided by the Farmers Market team, the event raised $95,000 to support HALO’s work with children and families healing from abuse and neglect.
The evening featured competitive rounds of bingo and a vibrant silent auction filled with crowd-favorite items such as luxury hotel stays, handcrafted quilts, photography sessions, wellness and skincare packages, and locally created art and experiences. Guests enjoyed friendly bidding wars and celebrated big bingo wins, with prizes ranging from restaurant gift cards to specialty baskets and exclusive experiences.
Stunning balloon installations from With God and Co (Shelly Kushmau) and catering from Kam’s helped create a warm, welcoming atmosphere for guests. Photographer Lindsay Harkness documented the night, capturing the fun, connection and generosity that filled the room.
Funds raised at Bingo Bash directly support HALO’s mission to bring deep healing to children, families and individuals impacted by trauma. More than 10,000 Oklahoma children are in need of support escaping abuse and neglect, with over 25% of the state’s foster care system residing in Oklahoma County alone.
“We are so grateful for everyone who showed up, gave generously and helped us make this night so special,” said event coordinator Hailey Brunner. “Knowing this event will make a real difference for children in our community means the world to us.”
HALO extends heartfelt thanks to every sponsor, donor, attendee and volunteer who made this first-ever event such a meaningful success.
