Sign up now for Bowl for Kids’ Sake: Cornhole Edition
Bowl for Kids’ Sake is changing! To keep everyone safe this year, Bowl for Kids’ Sake will be a cornhole event in late summer. Click here for event dates and to sign up.
Teams of 4 will face off on the cornhole pitch, outdoors and socially distant as needed. The sport is changing, but the spirit and mission of the event remains the same: you’ll still have fun celebrating the money you raised to support one-to-one mentoring in Southwest Michigan.
Each team member pledges to raise a minimum of $60 (or $240 per 4-person team) to participate. Afterwards, join us for a 2 hour cornhole party to celebrate your successful fundraising! You’ll find event dates and steps for getting involved below.
HOW DOES BOWL FOR KIDS’ SAKE: CORNHOLE EDITION WORK?
- Form a 4 person team. New for 2021, teams are limited to 4 people only so that we can ensure social distancing.
- Register for your cornhole party. With 9 two-hour parties to choose from across Allegan, Calhoun, Kalamazoo and Van Buren counties, we can’t wait to see you!
- Customize and share your fundraising webpage. It’s easy and customized pages raise more money! Just log on, upload a photo, and share your story.
- Raise funds for BBBS. By sending an email, text or tweet, posting to Facebook, or asking a few friends for support, you can make a big difference in the lives of children in your community.
- Hit your fundraising goal. Individual fundraising minimum: $60. Ask for $20 from three friends. Team fundraising minimum: $240. Many teams raise much more than that! Reach Super Team status and get perks!
