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.
