Looking for a fun and festive way to celebrate October while giving back to the community?

The Ventura County Professional Women’s Network (VCPWN) invites you to our Halloween Bunco Fundraiser at Black Bear Diner in Ventura, CA! This lively evening of costumes, dice, and laughter will not only bring people together but also support a powerful cause—a portion of the proceeds will benefit James Storehouse, a nonprofit serving foster youth in Ventura County and Los Angeles County.

A Spook-tacular Night of Bunco

If you’ve never played Bunco before, you’re in for a treat! This easy-to-learn dice game is a crowd favorite, making it perfect for beginners and seasoned players alike. Gather your friends, put on your best Halloween costume, and get ready for a night filled with excitement, cheering, and plenty of prizes.

Hosted at Black Bear Diner in Ventura, our Halloween Bunco event transforms a weeknight into something extraordinary. From festive décor and delicious food to raffle drawings and costume contests, this fundraiser is one of Ventura County’s most spirited October events.

Supporting James Storehouse

The highlight of the evening goes beyond Bunco—it’s about giving back. James Storehouse provides critical support to foster youth and families across Ventura County and Los Angeles. From supplying newborn essentials to furnishing apartments for young adults aging out of foster care, James Storehouse ensures no child or teen feels alone during life’s biggest transitions.

By attending our Halloween Bunco Fundraiser, you’re directly contributing to these efforts. Every ticket sold helps provide resources and hope to children and young adults in foster care.
