Mission
& Impact
Every scream, every ticket and every night at Bango helps us do something bigger — give back to the communities, kids and families around us.
Scaring for
a Cause.
Bango Haunted Crib is a nonprofit haunted attraction with a mission that goes far beyond creating a great scare.
Our goal is to bring people together through an unforgettable haunted experience and use the support we receive to give back to area organizations, youth programs, scholarships, community projects, local causes and families who need a helping hand.
When you walk through the doors of Bango, you’re not just buying a night of entertainment. You’re becoming part of something that can make a difference long after the lights come back on.
Their Future.
Turn a night of screams into support for the people and communities around us.
Your Fears…
Their Future.
It’s more than a tagline. It’s why we do what we do. The fear is temporary. The impact we can make together can last much longer.
From a Ticket to an Impact
Every person who visits Bango helps keep the mission moving forward.
You Visit
You come to Bango Haunted Crib for a night of scares, fun and an experience you won’t forget.

Your ticket helps support the nonprofit mission behind Bango Haunted Crib.
We Give Back
Bango uses its success to help organizations, programs, community causes and local families facing difficult times.
It Keeps Going
That support helps strengthen our communities and creates opportunities to make an even greater impact in the future.
Supporting What Matters Here
Bango’s outreach is centered around helping the organizations, people and programs that make our area a better place to call home.
Youth & Kids
Supporting opportunities, activities and programs that benefit young people throughout our area.
Area Organizations
Helping local groups and nonprofit organizations continue the work they do throughout our communities.
Scholarships
Investing in young people and helping create opportunities for their education and future.
Community Causes
Supporting local projects, events and causes where Bango can help make a meaningful difference.
Families in Need
Not every impact is public. Bango also makes private donations to local families facing difficult times, including families experiencing medical crises and unexpected hardships. These gifts are made quietly and respectfully, because helping our neighbors matters more than recognition.
Some Giving Happens Quietly.
Some of our greatest impact will never appear in a photo or on social media.
Throughout the year, Bango provides private assistance to families in need, including families navigating medical crises, unexpected hardships and other difficult circumstances.
Out of respect for those families and their privacy, these donations aren’t photographed or publicly recognized. They may not appear in the gallery below, but they are an important part of who we are and why Bango Haunted Crib exists.
The Impact You Help Create
These photos represent just some of the organizations, programs, kids and causes we’ve been proud to support. They tell part of the story — while many other acts of support are intentionally kept private.
Community Support
Giving back where we call home.
Youth Programs
Investing in the next generation.
Kids Day at Bango
Creating Halloween memories for the youngest members of our community.
Area Organizations
Supporting groups that strengthen our communities.
Local Causes
Standing behind our neighbors when they need it most.
Scholarships
Helping local students take their next step.
Our Community Makes
Bango Possible.
Bango Haunted Crib wouldn’t exist without the people who walk through our doors, the volunteers who give their time, the actors who bring the haunt to life, and the businesses and sponsors who stand behind what we’re trying to accomplish.
Every part of Bango works together. And because of that support, what happens inside a haunted house in Schaller, Iowa can have an impact far beyond its walls.
Looking for Support?
If your organization, youth program, community project, local cause or family is facing a difficult situation and could use support, we’d like to hear from you. Tell us what is happening and how Bango may be able to help. Requests involving individuals and families will be treated with respect for their privacy.
Come Get Scared.
Help Us Give Back.
One ticket can be part of something much bigger. Join us this October and help Bango continue making a difference for organizations, kids, families and communities throughout our area.
