Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Eastern Shore (BBBSES) is bringing the warmth of the season to Queen Anne’s County with a special Giving Tuesday celebration: FriendsGiving Bingo.

Community members are invited to gather with friends, enjoy good food and festive fun, and make a meaningful impact on local children—all in one joyful evening at Ten Eyck Brewing Company on Tuesday, Dec. 2.

This cheerful night of bingo, prizes, and community spirit kicks off at 6:30 p.m. at Ten Eyck Brewing Company (205 Grange Hall Rd, Queenstown, MD 21658). Every ticket and game card purchased helps fuel BBBSES’s mission to ensure children facing adversity are matched with caring mentors who help them discover their potential and brighten their path forward.

“Giving Tuesday is a beautiful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together,” said Executive Director Jessica Mimms. “FriendsGiving Bingo is the perfect way to celebrate kindness, connection, and community. Every dollar raised supports local children and provides encouragement they need to thrive. FriendsGiving bingo is a fun night out that truly changes lives here in Queen Anne’s County.”

Through customized development plans for each child served, BBBSES is seeing local youth grow in remarkable ways. Children are building confidence as they discover their strengths, developing competence through new skills and supportive guidance, and strengthening their sense of caring as they form meaningful, positive relationships. Together, these qualities empower youth to believe in themselves, make healthy choices, and contribute to their community with pride.

By attending FriendsGiving Bingo, guests are helping ensure local youth have the stability, support, and encouragement they need to grow emotionally, academically, and socially.
