No matter what it going on with the outside world, the game of bingo has long been a support for charities all over the globe. This has not stopped at just land based bingo clubs either because online bingo sites are also trying to do their bit, with the help of their bingo players for charity. I am pleased to say that Betfred Bingo are one of the latest online bingo sites to go down the Charity online bingo route, which means from now on their players can take part in a monthly Charity Bingo night special!

Charity Bingo nights will take place at Betfred Bingo once every month and they will confirm the date of this night via their weekly bingo newsletters or under the monthly promotions tab at their online bingo site. During these two hours of online bingo play Betfred Bingo have pledged to donate 5p from every strip of 6 bingo tickets purchased to their chosen charity of the month.

The bingo player that has played the most bingo games at Betfred Bingo will currently get the privilege of selecting the charity of the month! The chat host on duty at the time the charity bingo games are being played will also run a special charity chat game, where their bingo players will have the chance to win even more online bingo bonuses than usual as a thank you from them to you for helping Betfred Bingo support a worthwhile charity as you play bingo.

With the credit crunch and the recession the UK and other parts of the world are going through at the moment, charities are starting to feel the pinch as less and less people including corporate businesses seem to be parting with their cash to give to charity. When watching the news on TV last night a local charity to where I live had run a fund raising campaign to try and raise £10,000 from corporate sponsors, but instead of raising the £10,000 they had hoped for all they managed to raise was £30, which does give you some indication of how hard charities are finding it at the moment.

This is why we whole heartedly support online bingo sites like Betfred Bingo in their plights to try raise money for Charity through their web sites, with their bingo players help of course!
