Thank you for helping raise more than $100,000!
We can't thank everyone enough for their support, it was an amazing return to Bowl for Kids sake! Read all about it in our 2023 Bowl for Kids Sake Newsletter.
YOUR MISSION: Raise money to ignite the potential of Island youth & have fun competing in the hunt!
Impact: When a child has a mentor, the odds they will be emotionally, socially & physically healthy increases dramatically…and when we have healthy young people in our communities, everyone benefits.
Mentoring is an essential service we must continue to provide, but we need your help! The money raised during Bowl for Kids Sake 2023 will help provide life-changing mentoring relationships for youth across PEI.
Creating a new mentoring match costs roughly $1200. If your team raises $1200, you will be Matchmakers! If everyone on your team raises $100 to $150, your team could raise more than half the cost of a match. Aim for the $250 to $300 level, and you could be Matchmakers!
Since money invested in BBBS programs generates an average social return on investment of $18 for every dollar invested. Whether you are fundraising or donating, the money raised during Bowl for Kids Sake will have huge impact in our community.
We look forward to celebrating your fundraising success on Bowl for Kids Sake weekend - March 18th & 19th!
