You are an important part of making this years Bowl For Kids Sake a Big Success...for the Children!
Here is how it works….
Step 1-Get a Team!
Get 4-5 of your friends, co-workers, family, etc. together to be a
bowling team.
Step 2-Get Excited!
Get excited about raising money for Kids! Bowl for Kids’
Sake is Big Brothers Big Sister largest fundraiser. All
money raised goes to help match a child with a mentor
who can be their friend.
Step 3-Get Sponsors!
Each team member needs a Sponsor Sheet and needs to get as many
sponsors as possible. You can register and create your own PERSONAL
WEBPAGE to request pleges online at:
www.bluegrassBFKS2009.kintera.org
This is an easy and economical way to get pledges, you can even get
pledges while you sleep. Each bowler that gets $75 dollars in pledges
will receive a commemorative BFKS t-shirt.
Over the next few weeks you will see plenty of potential sponsors. It’s
easy to fill the sheet if you remember to ask! Here are some ideas of
people to ask:
| Doctor |
Mechanic |
Baker |
| Dentist |
Florist |
Grocer |
| Jeweler |
Vet |
Attorney |
| Avon Rep |
Hair Stylist |
CPA |
And dont forget those people you've bout from in the past year...Girl

sponsored you last year!

requests! Sign up and create your webpage at:

Set an ambitoius online goal to challenge your sponsors. More
money means more children matched with a mentor!
Make the first sponsor listed on your pledge sheet a higher pledge

Increase your pledge by asking your sponsors if they have a matching
gifts program for non-profit organizations at their company.
