Community Events & 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.

When: September 29, 2026.

Where: Vic’s Bar & Grill, 1608 Main Ave. SE, Moorhead.

Tickets & Pricing:
Bingo certificates will be available at Vic’s for $40 (cash only). Follow our Facebook page for future announcements of dates and times. This certificate reserves your pack of three-card bingo sheets for 10 games.

Additional one-card bingo sheets will be available for $2 each.

Blackout bingo is not included in the pack and will be available for $5 for a one-card bingo sheet.

Bingo certificates, bingo cards, and raffle tickets must be paid for in cash only, in accordance with Minnesota state gambling regulations.

Prizes: Designer purses by Kate Spade, Coach, and Michael Kors will be awarded as bingo prizes.

In the event of multiple bingo winners, no one will receive the purse, in accordance with Minnesota state law, and the purse will be raffled off. Raffle tickets will be sold for $5 each. The bingo winners will each get to choose a CCRI crossbody fanny pack containing surprise gift cards from local businesses.

Miscellaneous:
Food and drinks can be purchased at Vic’s. Check out their amazing apps, burger baskets, and drinks! Plus, Vic’s is donating 10% of all food and drink sales during the purse bingo fundraiser to CCRI!

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.

Cash only for bingo and raffles—no checks, credit, or debit cards.

CCRI Summer Silent Auction

We are thankful for every bidder who helped make our Summer Silent Auction on August 7 a huge success!

Our silent auction raises money for events and activities such as our inclusive Prom that help the people we support create connections, build life skills and live as independently as possible. Your support helps us provide housing support, mental health services, and create meaningful opportunities for inclusion for adults and kids with disabilities.

We had many great items and baskets up for grabs, and we’re already excited to see what next year’s auction will look like. Stay tuned!

Thank you to everyone who came out for our first-ever summer luncheon fundraiser on June 10! We had a great turnout of supporters for the event, which featured a taco bar, a short program highlighting our care, and some excellent raffles and giveaways.

It was an incredible day, and we are so grateful to everyone who came out and showed their generosity for the folks we support. We can’t wait for next year!

FM Crusaders Bike Show Auctions—March 20–21, 2027

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 2026 event raised nearly $13,000 to help keep camp affordable for the folks we support!

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.
