BLACK ENTREPRENEUR LAUNCHES HBCU BINGO TO HONOR 2020 GRADS WITH OVER $1 MILLION IN GAME PRIZES AND CASH
Nationwide (BlackNews.com) — Veteran Hollywood TV Producer and HBCU graduate herself, TeeJ Mercer, will launch “TeeJ’s Bingo Nite: HBCU 2020 Grad Edition” (TBNHGE), a loud and lively online Bingo game event that will award over $1.3 million in donated career-launch professional services and products to all players of the 4-day HBCU Bingo events.
As a proud graduate of Howard University, TeeJ (pronounced TJ) has advocated for HBCUs throughout her professional TV career in Hollywood, and she even left southern California to relocate to Atlanta in March 2020 to develop a new television program for and about HBCU students.
But she was suddenly divinely inspired to throw a Bingo tournament for 2020 HBCU grads as a consolation; she could offer small cash prizes as graduation gifts.
The Grand Prizes consist of cash and prize awards in the following increments for each week:
* $1,000 cash the 1st week, and a minimum total prize package of $8,477
* $1,500 the 2nd week, and a minimum total prize package of $8,977
* $2,000 the 3rd week and a minimum total prize package of $9,477
* $2,500 the 4th and final week, and a minimum total prize package of $9,977
Grand Prizes are awarded in round 7 – the final round of each night, plus one lucky Grad will win a Macbook laptop each week.
Those who would like to donate to the TBNHGE to increase the prize for the 2020 HBCU grads can send a tax-deductible Cash App, Venmo or PayPal gift.
