Bowl for Kids
Bowl for Kids' Sake has been Big Brothers Big Sisters' largest annual fundraiser since 1983. Each year, we strive to get more and more of the community involved in putting teams together and collecting pledges. The money that is raised through this event goes directly towards matching children with caring, committed mentors.
Every year, representatives from small and large businesses, civic clubs, professional organizations, law enforcement agencies, firefighters, and schools participate in forming teams and raising money to help Big Brothers Big Sisters match more kids.
Cars for Kids' Sake
Cars for Kids' Sake is an innovative way to help Big Brothers Big Sisters raise funds by donating your unwanted vehicle. Donated vehicles qualify as charitable gifts and may be eligible for tax deduction.
We welcome all types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, SUVs, motor homes, boats, airplanes, farm equipment, and construction equipment. You will be asked to describe the condition of the vehicle. The vehicle does not need to run.
The process for donating a car is simple and hassle-free. Call Big Brothers Big Sister’s Vehicle Donation Program at (800) 710-9145, or follow the easy steps on-line at www.bbbs.org . The vehicle will be picked up, processed, and sold to help kids in your community.
