(Scroll down for step-by-step instructions)
This exciting event continues to be our most successful fundraiser year after year. In 2011, over 150 teams from local businesses, schools, churches, and service clubs collected donations from friends, co-workers, and neighbors to help us raise the funds needed to provide mentoring services to Humboldt County youth in need. Every dollar raised helps to provide professionally supported volunteer mentors for children in our community.
Each fundraising team's reward for collecting donations is a round of bowling and fairytale-themed fun (including prizes!). Bowl for Kids' Sake fundraising teams make mentoring happen while having a lot of fun! We look forward to seeing all our old friends at Ever After Bowl, and making some new ones.
