We will be hosting a Thanksgiving fundraiser and have selected the Covenant House to be the designated organization in which all proceeds will be distributed to. The Covenant House is a safe place of refuge dedicated to help suffering homeless youth. They meet the basic needs of each individual youth by providing a nourishing meal, shower, clean clothes, medical attention, and overall a safe place secure from the dangers of the streets. They instill the values of communication, while providing stability and structure necessary to build a positive future. All while fostering confidence, they encourage young people to believe in themselves and make smart choices for their lives.
We have been talking to sponsors that would like to partner with us to cover expenses for the youth to enjoy a fun-filled day of bowling with us. In addition to that, we would love for them to enjoy a home-cooked nourishing Thanksgiving meal. All teams involved will cover the cost of the Covenant House bowler. This gives each Covenant House youth a chance to intermingle with positive people, network, and ultimately enjoy a worry free afternoon while meeting and greeting with some of the city's finest artists. With the kid's present, the teams and sponsors participating will see exactly whom the donations are appropriated for.
At this time, we are asking for a commitment of $125(average of $25 per bowler) from all bowling teams consisting of 4-5 players on each lane, leaving room for an additional bowler from the covenant house to join your team. This covers the cost of 3 hours of unlimited bowling, shoe rental, pizza & pop, transportation for the youth, and a Thanksgiving meal provided to the Covenant House. All donations must be submitted by November 4, 2013 to ensure all lanes are held as well as printing and flyer distribution in a timely fashion.
Will you join us this holiday season? Let us collaborate in a joint effort to make someone else’s season brighter other than ourselves. Even with despair in our economy, we can make a difference today in committing to a great cause and benefit such as this. We look forward to enjoying an experience like no other and to bowl with you!
