The CarsonStrong Foundation is excited to host its Fourth Annual Designer Purse Bingo on Sunday, February 1, 2026, at Encore Event Center in Strongsville, Ohio. Registration opens at 11:30 AM, with the first round of bingo beginning at 1:00 PM.
The event will be hosted by FOX 8 News anchor Kristi Capel, WQMX host Sarah Kay, and Bachelor Nation alum and cancer advocate Michael Allio, who will help bring energy, connection, and plenty of fun to the room.
Proceeds from the event will support the Foundation’s mission of positively impacting children and families affected by cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. This includes the Foundation’s signature program, The Gift of Time Together™, which provides families with personalized experiences to create cherished memories away from hospital walls and treatment routines.
This year’s theme, “Country Glam,” invites guests to grab their boots, bling, and a little yeehaw for a fun afternoon filled with sparkle and southern flair. Guests will enjoy ten rounds of bingo, raffles, themed photo ops, and plenty of light bites and desserts.
