Community Members Lend a Helping Hand for the BNA Seeds of Hope Fundraiser

Community members are invited to test their knowledge while supporting local families during the Bloomingdale Neighborhood Association’s annual Trivia Night benefiting Seeds of Hope.

The fundraiser will take place on Monday, July 20, at JF Kicks, 3345 Lithia Pinecrest Road in Valrico. Trivia begins at 7 p.m., and organizers encourage guests to arrive early to enjoy dinner or appetizers before the competition begins.

In addition to the trivia competition, attendees will have opportunities to purchase raffle tickets, with proceeds benefiting Seeds of Hope, a local nonprofit that provides food assistance and other resources to families in need.

This year’s event will also serve as a collection drive for the organization’s annual Back-to-School Backpack Program. Organizers are accepting donations of backpacks, new school supplies and nonperishable food items to help local students and families prepare for the upcoming school year.

Community members who are unable to attend the event can still support the Back-to-School Drive by donating new backpacks, school supplies or nonperishable food items through Seeds of Hope. Donations help ensure students begin the school year with the supplies they need while also assisting families experiencing food insecurity.

Seeds of Hope serves families throughout the Brandon and Valrico communities through a variety of outreach programs, including food assistance and seasonal initiatives.

Trivia Night is open to the public, and organizers encourage residents to bring friends, form teams and enjoy an evening of friendly competition while supporting a local cause.
