Bowling for Bucks

Location: In-Person

Overhead Cost: $$

Expected Return: $$$

Complexity: 3

Special Considerations

CHALLENGES TO CONSIDER: Renting lanes at a bowling alley can be costly.
Reach out early to see if you can get a discounted rate for booking multiple lanes or the entire space.
THE BEST TIME TO DO THIS: Anytime
SPONSORING OR PARTNERING ORGANIZATION: The bowling alley, of course!

Coordinate with a bowling alley to rent a group of lanes — or the entire building if you know you’ll have a lot of participants — and sign up teams. Participants can raise pledges per pin, games bowled, scores, or just raise donations in general.
