The Miriam's Table Beach Bingo fundraiser always draws a full house.
Miriam's Table hosted its fifth annual bingo fundraiser Feb. 22 at St. Jude the Apostle Parish Life Hall in Lewes.
A group of 190 enthusiastic players filled the room and collectively raised more than $14,000 for the childhood nutrition center in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
"Each year, I am always humbled by the generosity of the people who come and support this event," said Susie Keefer, founder and board president. A total of 48 children received sponsorships for a year's worth of meals at the event.
A team of volunteers set up, prepared food, registered players and did cleanup, and generous local businesses contributed.
