1.) BBBSCO is a one-to-one mentoring program; which matches professionally screened
and trained volunteers with youth ages 6-15 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 (ie. 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 ofJ Bar J Youth Services; which provides executive
leadership, accounting, grant writing and many administrative functions. BBBSCO has
its own Advisory Board, Program Director and Development 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 (this will be our 11th Annual!) fundraising
campaign and event which significantly help in providing financial support to ensure the
future quality and growth of the program. 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 400 people attend to support the program.
3.) The event is typically held the first weekend of May each year. This year it will take
place on May 8th at the Sun Mt. Fun Center. We are in full swing of completing our
task list.
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 funds 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, and materials.
5.) The children & families of Deschutes County will directly benefit from this activity
because it will allow our staff to match more youth with 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.
6.) BFKS 2009 expenditures were approx. $3,750. This year we anticipate approximately
$5,500 in expenditures, due to price increases and changes being made by vendors.
(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 2010 BFKS (approx. $35,000) will benefit Big Brothers Big
Sisters in Deschutes County! **
