What is Bowl for Kids' Sake?

Bowl for Kids' Sake is our largest fundraiser that takes place in the spring every year. Participants register online or via the paper registration form and create teams of 6. After you register, it's time to fundraise for your team. We suggest that each team set a goal of raising $500 collectively, but some raise over $2,000; the goal is up to you! On the day of the event, turn in any cash/check donations you have collected and celebrate your fundraising success with a two-hour bowling party! Each participant must raise a minimum of $30 to participate. Raise $50 and you will also receive a T-shirt! During the event, we will have a photo booth where your team can take photos and each participant has a chance to win prizes. We will also be selling raffle tickets for a chance to win some awesome raffle items! 

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwesten Indiana is a one-to-one mentoring program dedicated to improving the lives of children in our community.
