- Tips for Bowlers
Remember the cause
You are asking sponsors to help Big Brothers Big Sisters provide
support for children in your community. Your request is on behalf
of a child on our waiting list. Bowl For Kids' Sake annually generates
one-third of Big Brothers Big Sisters operating budget, of which
80 percent supports program-related activities. It is the single
largest source of funds and potential volunteers for our mentoring
program.
This is the easiest
way to get a sponsor. Use your address book from work and home to
gain support without ever picking up the phone or getting in your
car. Be sure to explain how Bowl For Kids' Sake helps children in
our community and how they can make a difference in the lives of
these children, too.
