DEAR SUN SPOTS: Bowl for Kids’ Sake is Big Brothers Big Sisters’ signature fundraiser. Each year half a million people across America come together to have fun and raise money to support Big Brothers Big Sisters as we change how children grow up.
Bowl for Kids’ Sake is the perfect way for individuals to make an impact on our community — it only takes a little bit of effort to raise the money that is vital to our program’s success. No bowling expertise is required, only the willingness to share in our effort to make a difference in the lives of the youth in our communities.
Our mission is to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever. Our vision is that all children achieve success in life.
Our Lewiston event is held at Sparetime Recreation on May 20 and 21. You can register a team, form a virtual bowling team, or support our event with a donation online at www.firstgiving.ccibfks or contact us at (207) 212-8227. It is so easy to make an impact in the life of a child. Just register a team, collect pledges from family, friends and co-workers, and join us to have fun and make a big difference in the life of a child.
