Big Brothers plans annual bowling fundraiser April 6

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeastern Pennsylvania announces the 2024 Bowl for Kids’ Sake event.

The fundraising event resumed at three locations in NEPA last year after a pandemic hiatus and has expanded to five in the upcoming year.

CEO Jennifer Gimble states, “We are excited to share that Bowl for Kids’ Sake is coming to 2024 SUPERHERO style with more bowling locations and a super good time.”

This event has a 40-year history of not only raising funds for the organization, but bringing together the community in support of critical one-one-one mentoring relationships for children in need.

This year’s theme is Superheroes.

The local event will be held April 6 at Skylanes in East Stroudsburg.

Area bowlers are asked to form teams, and register by visiting https://www.bbbsnepa.com/.

Area businesses are encouraged to participate either in terms of gathering bowling teams, and sponsorships for the event.

All proceeds raised will benefit critical one-on-one mentoring relationships for children right here in our community through Big Brothers Big Sisters of NEPA. Gimble said, “Ignite, Empower, and Defend the potential of youth by supporting critical one-to-one mentoring relationships for children in need. It costs about $1,500 to create and support a single match for one year, so we count on community involvement in our fundraisers to be able to give back in this way.”

Any individual bowler who raises $50 or more, will receive a commemorative T-shirt. Additional prizes and raffles will be offered.
