EYE (Encouraging the Youth to Excel) has just started out and funds were scarce. There is no better way than to start a fundraiser.
People in rural areas love a good bingo game. Bingo Toledo was conceptualized and was planned out by the group members. Each member was tasked to hand out and sell Bingo Tickets worth twenty pesos. Items won during the fundraiser included an electric fan, stand fan, rice cooker, electric kettle, gas burner, grocery items, three sacks of rice, and many more.
The proceeds were used to fund for the group's Christmas activities. The organization joined the city's Light-a-Tree Program under Mayor Arlene 'Dydee' Espinosa-Zambo. The organization also had their Christmas party and had raffle draws for the members.
