The Black-Tie Human Bingo committee recently presented a check for $80,125 to Mental Health America of Aiken, Edgefield and Barnwell Counties. The funds were raised through sponsorships and a community committee of 56 local stakeholders.

The money will be used to help prevent deaths by suicide by supporting the MHAA crisis line, bringing Theater Therapy to local high schools, expanding the Don’t Duck program for local elementary and middle schoolers, and brining the See Something, Say Something program to area high schools and colleges.
