1.) BBBSCO is a one-to-one mentoring program; which matches professionally screened and
trained volunteers with youth throughout the Tri County area. The purpose of BBBSCO is to give
children & families the opportunity to form meaningful relationships with volunteer mentors. Our
program provides many match activities for program participates (i.e. rafting, snowshoeing,
camping, fishing, etc.). Many `Gigs" and "Littles" spend their time taking advantage of the
Central Oregon landscape. Our leadership structure stems from being a part of the largest regional
youth development provider. We are a program of J Bar J Youth Services; which provides
executive leadership, accounting, grant writing and many administrative functions. BBBSCO has
its own Advisory Board and Program Director; who provide support, oversight and guide the
program while working closely with 2 Advisory Boards in surrounding counties.
(See attached Organizational Chart)
2.) Bowl For Kids' Sake is an annual fundraising event which helps in providing financial support
to ensure the future quality and growth of the program. This will be our 13th annual BFKS! Many
people get involved and this is a great way to engage our Bigs and Littles; while supporting a
community event. This event has approximately 425 people attend to support the program.
3.) The event is typically held the first weekend of May each year. It will take place on May 12th
this year at Sun Mountain Fun Center.
4.) This activity (BFKS) will recruit community support to provide financial assistance to the
number one mentoring program in the nation. Many individuals, business professionals and
friends of the program rally to collect pledge money to benefit BBBSCO. This event allows our
community to advocate and support BBBSCO; while raising funding to sustain and expand the
program. It is a great marketing tool for local businesses that choose to sponsor our event as well
as those businesses that donate in-kind food, services, volunteer hours and materials.
5.) The children & families of Deschutes County will directly benefit from this activity because it
will allow our staff to match more children with caring adult mentors. Our services are free to
children between the ages of 6-15 who want and need a mentor. Most children in the program are
from low-income, single -parent households. Many struggling with school and have inadequate
support systems. Our vision is that all children achieve success in life.
6.) BFKS 2011 expenditures were $2,800. This year we anticipate approximately $2,800 in
expenditures (see budget attachment). Grant funds will be used as a BFKS Lucky Strike
Sponsorship (see BFKS $2,500 Lucky Strike Sponsorship attachment for details on how the grant
funds will be used). ALL proceeds from 2012 BFKS (approx. $29,000) will benefit Big Brothers
Big Sisters in Deschutes County.

FOR KIDS' SAKE
Dear County Commissioners,
On May 12, 2012 Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon will host the 13th Annual Bowl for
Kids' Sake (BFKS) at Sun Mountain Fun Center. We hope that the county will again support
BFKS with a Lucky Strike sponsorship.
Our program matches youth, ages six through fifteen, with caring adult mentors throughout
Deschutes, Crook & Jefferson Counties. Our "Bigs" and "Littles" spend an average of six to
twelve hours a month together in the community participating in activities such as, hiking, biking,
arts & crafts, going to movies or simply sitting and chatting. Our vision is that all children
achieve success in life.
Community members and businesses are invited to participate in Bowl for Kids' Sake by
entering a team of 4-6 people to bowl on Saturday, May 12th for two hours between 10:00 -Noon
or Noon -2:00. You don't have to be a great bowler to help us raise funds and awareness.
As you know, our Bowl for Kids' Sake Campaign is our annual fundraiser to support our
programs for children. This year our goal is to raise $35,000. We cannot make our goals a
reality without your support. Please join other business leaders in the community and support
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon. If you need additional information, please contact
me.
On behalf of the Bigs and Littles, our Advisory Board and Staff, our community, we thank you for
your continued support of our Big Brothers Big Sisters program.
The enclosed information sheet lists the various sponsorship opportunities available and
benefits to the sponsors. If you would like to form a bowling team as well, simply give us a call
at 541.312.6047, or visit our website at www.bbbsco.orq Thank you for your consideration and
we look forward to hearing from you soon.
