BOWL FOR KIDS' SAKE UPDATE

From all of us at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lorain County we sincerely hope that you, your family and all your employees are safe and healthy through this unprecedented time. Having a partner like you has meant the world to us. 

We know that you are navigating a difficult and changing landscape at this time, but we wanted to reach out to you and let you know that the Bowl For Kids' Sake event scheduled for March 28th has been postponed to August. As recommended by the CDC, we are following social distancing guidelines for the safety of our guests, staff, Bigs and Littles. Bowl For Kids' Event resignation will reopen next week for current and new participants. This date is contingent on the Governor's recommendation for social gatherings. 

That event alone represents $25,000 of our budget. We want to be respectful and delicate at this time, so we ask that you will consider shifting your investment from sponsorship to operational support that we need.  

Our Littles often face societal barriers, opportunity gaps and adversities including poverty and identity-based discrimination in their communities. Facing these barriers together with their Big builds confidence and resilience through a positive relationship. Although face-to-face mentoring is not possible at this time, we are committed to providing innovative and creative support of our Bigs and Littles, through phone calls, text messaging, digital learning platforms and other technology enabled engagement tools. Your investment can play a critical role in keeping these Bigs and Littles connected during these trying times. 

Thank you for your consideration. We need your support now than ever before.

Big Brothers Big Sisters staff are available to discuss this at your convenience; staff can be reached at 440-714-7637 or at marcus@bigloraincounty.org.
