42nd Annual Bowl for Kids' Sake

Bowl for Kids Sake is Big Brothers Big Sisters’ premier fun-raising event where people like you get together with friends, family, and co-workers and have a fun time bowling in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring programs in Lanark County.

This auction is in support of our Fundraising efforts along with the 42nd Annual Bowl for Kids' Sake event.

WHY BOWL FOR KIDS SAKE?
All children need support and encouragement from caring adults to help ignite their potential. We connect young people with carefully selected mentors that result in friendships. These relationships encourages outcomes like resilience, improved school achievement, confidence and strength to make positive life choices. Last year hundreds of young people were matched with a mentor right here in our community.

What does raising money during Bowl for Kids Sake accomplish?

Families reach out to Big Brothers Big Sisters in ever-growing numbers for support, and our ability to help them relies on our fundraising success. Creating a new match between a volunteer and child has an annual cost of $1,500. YOU and your team can become a MatchMaker. Aim to raise $1,500 and help invest in the creation of a new match relationship. Every dollar raised helps us help kids!

MISSION

To enable life-changing mentoring relationships to ignite the power and potential of young people in Lanark County.

Since 1973 hundreds of men and women have offered friendship to local children. These volunteers are screened and receive on-going support and guidance from agency professional staff.

VISION

All young people in Lanark County realize their full potential.

Witnessing the transformation of a child into a confident, concerned and motivated young person is a remarkable thing. Ushering them into adulthood, seeing them grow into a successful, responsible member of their community and society at large is even more satisfying. Proudly, it’s something our staff, volunteers and donors help bring about every day, and we’re very grateful for their generosity and support.

Whether it’s in the form of time or money there is no more important investment we as individuals can make than in helping our nation’s children realize – and share – their full potential.
