BOWL FOR KIDS’ SAKE
About Bowl for Kids’ Sake 2026
For over 90 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Ohio has been helping young people discover their power, their confidence, and their limitless potential 💚.

It’s more than a bowling event — it’s a celebration of mentorship, a gathering of teams who believe in kids, and a reminder that every roll can spark a ripple of change.
