Event Information

Bowl for Kids' Sake is Big Brothers Big Sisters' largest national fundraiser, raising over $20 million annually for children in need across the country. Here in Metro Milwaukee, all donations raised through Bowl for Kids' Sake benefit children in Waukesha and Milwaukee counties.  Because of Bowl for Kids' Sake, more Bigs and Littles can be paired up, more friendships can be created and improved outlooks on life can be started.

Bowl for Kids' Sake embodies the spirit that "It Takes Little to Be Big" - it's a fun and easy way to positively impact a child's life. Just follow the simple steps below  - it's as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Pick your date! Your team captain picks a date & time from our wonderful slate of events. Don't worry - if you need to change your reservation later, we'll help you out.
2. Choose your participation! We offer two participation levels in 2024 - Pinsetter and Striker. At the Striker level, not only do you and your team get to have fun, you will help underwrite the opportunity for a Big & Little to bowl for free during BFKS 2024! And if you're on this page, you aren't satisfied with just the bare minimum donation. In our exciting Perfect Game Team Challenge, your team can compete to raise the most funds to help the kids in our program. We'll have some fabulous prizes for the top individual and team fundraisers, and you'll be recognized for your support and generosity.
3. Register Your Team! You get to choose whether you'll fundraise on your own or consider creating a team with family, friends, fraternity brothers, sorority sisters, co-workers, neighbors, etc.  We suggest that each fundraiser sets a minimum fundraising goal of $100.  

Once you've registered, it's time to start fundraising. Use social media, send emails, host a bake sale, or make a good old-fashioned in-person ask.  You only need 5 people to donate $20 and you'll hit the minimum goal - totally doable!  100% of the money raised directly supports children served by Big Brothers Big Sisters in Milwaukee and Waukesha counties.

Once you've reached (or exceeded) your fundraising goal, it's time to have fun!  We provide two games of bowling with shoe rental, pizza, soda, and the chance to win prizes while you bowl.  We recognize that not everyone is ready to gather in groups yet...and that's okay.  As a virtual bowler, you can still make an impact by reaching your fundraising goal - even without setting foot on the lanes.
