Even the old and elderly are learning a lot from the game. Not just about winning and losing. It is used to alert the old about financial frauds and diseases as well as to raise money to help causes. Only recently, Melanie Woods, investor education coordinator for the securities division of the Indiana Secretary of State, tried to educate the elderly at a retirement community with the help of the game. The call number A34 was 30 percent, which Woods told the players was “the percent of victims we see who are seniors, which is why we hold presentations like this.”

In Edmonton, Canada, Stephani Carter of EcoAmmo who is a green activist, observed Earth Day on April 22 by playing Eco Bingo games with her staff. It was a game with eco-friendly initiatives instead of numbers. Those who won were offered organically prepared dinners for two instead of money!
