Fundraisers
CCRI Designer Purse Bingo
Bingo is one of our clients’ favorite life enrichment activities at CCRI, so we’re holding designer purse bingo fundraisers in honor of—and to help support—the folks we serve.
Money raised will help people with disabilities:
- Live more independently.
- Build life skills to reach their full potential.
- Find and maintain housing.
- Overcome mental health hurdles.
- Experience life fully through accessible, inclusive activities.
When: Tuesday, January 14, 2025. Bingo starts promptly at 6 P.M., so get there early to sign in, get your bingo cards, and order some delicious food and drinks!
Where: Vic’s Bar & Grill, 1608 Main Ave. SE, Moorhead.
Tickets & Pricing: $40 (cash only).
Each $40 ticket reserves your general admission seat until 6 P.M. and includes a pack of three-card bingo sheets for 10 games.
Buy your tickets Saturday, December 14, from 1–6 P.M. and Sunday, December 15, from 3–6 P.M. at Vic’s Bar and Grill, 1608 Main Ave., SE, in Moorhead.

Blackout bingo is not included in the pack and will be available for $5 for a one-card bingo sheet.
Bingo tickets, bingo cards, and raffle tickets must be paid for in cash only, in accordance with Minnesota state gambling regulations.

The bingo winners will each get to choose a CCRI crossbody fanny pack containing surprise gift cards from local business worth $50.

Customized CCRI Dazzle Daubers are available for $1. You can use your own, but you must use a bingo dauber to mark your card.
Players must be at least 18 years old.

FM Crusaders Bike Show Auctions
Since 2009, the FM Crusaders Motorcycle Club has been raising money through their annual Bike Show’s silent and live auctions to support Camp HERO—CCRI’s three-day summer camp that gives people with disabilities the chance to experience the great outdoors in an inclusive, accessible environment.
Their 2024 event raised more than $17,000 to help keep camp affordable for the folks we serve.
Camp HERO (named for the goal of Helping Everyone Remove Obstacles) offers boating, fishing, swimming, crafts, and many more individualized activities. Outside of Camp HERO, these activities are often denied to those with disabilities because of the time and cost involved in making it a safe, accessible experience.
CCRI provides staff trained to work with individuals with disabilities as well as medical personnel to ensure camp is a safe, healthy experience for everyone. Because of the expense involved, camp fees only cover part of the costs. Donations—such as the support the Crusaders provide—help CCRI offset those costs so people of all income levels can enjoy camp.
Post-Prom Fundraising Party
Friday, October 3, 2025 | 6:30–9:30 P.M. | Courtyard by Marriott, Moorhead
In 2025, we’re switching gears and replacing our TableScapes fundraiser with a post-prom fundraising party. Held the day after CCRI prom in the same amazingly decorated space, you’ll get to experience the magic of our prom with a night of fun, casino-style games, appetizers, and raising funds to help the people we support live full, independent lives.
Community Events
