No on Government Waste Campaign Fundraiser at Hamburger Mary’s on Oct 8

A gala fundraising event benefiting the No on Government Waste – No on Measure B Campaign is scheduled for Monday, October 8, to be held at Hamburger Mary’s Bar & Grill.

The venue has graciously offered to host a special evening of its world famous Legendary Bingo night, especially for the No on Government Waste Campaign. The event is a well-loved tradition at Hamburger Mary’s and has benefited many charities and causes.

“We are so lucky to have Hamburger Mary’s donate this special event for the campaign,” FSC Board member and event organizer Mara Epstein said. “Their generous support is greatly appreciated, and we’re looking forward to a really fun, unique night of bingo, silent auction, raffle and celebrity appearances.

“We want to encourage adult industry members, fans and voters to come out, have fun and learn more about Measure B,” Epstein added. “As residents of Los Angeles, we all pay taxes and see the reductions in needed local services – we want to let voters know that Measure B is unnecessary government overreach that will cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars while needed programs’ budgets are being slashed.”

Gift basket donations are being collected for the event’s silent auction, which include assortments of naughty goodies from Topco Sales, Evil Angel Video and Good Vibrations, among others. If you are interested in donating to or sponsoring the event, please contact Epstein at maraepstein@maiatoys.com.

A $20 door donation will allow attendees to participate in raunchy rounds of bingo and lots more fun. The event will begin at 8pm.

Hamburger Mary’s is located at 8228 Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA.
