The spirit of Halloween came alive Oct. 18 as Rescuing Families hosted its 4th annual Halloween Bingo Costume Party — an evening filled with costumes, laughter, and charitable giving.
The event drew a lively crowd eager to play bingo, win prizes, and support the Franklin Square–based nonprofit’s mission of helping families in need.
Rescuing Families renovates homes for Long Island families struggling with disabilities, illnesses, and financial hardships. The organization relies on community donations and events like this one to continue its hands-on work improving accessibility and living conditions for those who need it most.
Guests arrived in their best Halloween attire — from spooky to silly — for a night of bingo, raffles, and friendly competition. The event featured a buffet dinner, drinks, and dessert, with prizes including gift cards to Amazon, HomeGoods, Target, and local eateries. Thirty raffle baskets, valued between $100 and $500, and a jackpot bingo prize of $500 kept the excitement high throughout the evening.
Attendees also took part in a costume contest, with prizes awarded for creativity and spirit.
Funds raised from the event will go directly toward future renovation projects, continuing Rescuing Families’ commitment to making homes safer and more accessible for Long Islanders facing challenges.
