Fundraising
Supporting Big
Brothers Big Sisters of Livingston County is to take a leading
role in transforming the lives of children. We have put together
a few fundraisers that we offer to you and hope you can take
part in.
Our biggest
fundraiser each year is Bowl For Kids’ Sake. This bowl-a-thon is
the most important fundraiser for our agency and one of the
largest in the county. Over 1,000 bowlers turn out to Bowl For
Kids’. Each team bowls two games in two hours.
Bowl For Kids’
Sake is a pledge event. Teams of five (5) are formed and
register with us on a Registration Form.
The team Captain is sent a pledge form for each team member. He
or she distributes one pledge form to each of their team
members. Each bowler is encouraged to raise $100 and is required
to raise a minimum of $50.
