Writing a bingo program for your bingo fundraiser can be difficult. Determining the size of prize payouts and the number of bingo games often depends on your region, and requires some research. However, you also have to make sure that your program includes other basic information that your players will need to know.

So, the following is a quick rundown of what basic information your bingo program should convey to your bingo players:

1. Every program should show your bingo event’s date, location, contact information (phone and email), the name of the bingo chairperson(s), hours of operation, and the time when bingo will start.

2. Make sure your bingo players know what nonprofit the bingo proceeds will be going toward. Everyone enjoys helping a worthy cause and players like to know who’s being helped.

3. List your bingo paper prices and prize amounts. Try to convey this information in a clear, concise way. If you’re selling bingo daubers or other concession items, you may want to list these prices on a separate sheet different from your program. Regardless, bingo players love to know what they’re paying and for what they’ll be playing.

4. Always show the number of bingo games and describe them as best you can in the space available. If a particular bingo paper or color is to be played for each game, make sure you show this.

5. If possible, show a picture or graphic demonstrating the winning bingo patterns. Many programs will show these patterns on the backside of the bingo program.
