Otero Bowl For Kids' Sake 2023 SUPPORTING BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS IN OTERO COUNTY
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central New Mexico

About Otero Bowl For Kids' Sake 2023

Bowl for Kids’ Sake is Big Brothers Big Sisters largest annual fundraising campaign. The event has been held across the country for over 50 years! The money raised through this campaign will be used to support quality mentoring matches between caring adult volunteers and at-risk children in New Mexico. Our goal for BFKS 2023 is to raise $25,000 to help nearly children in Otero County stay in school, graduate, build confidence, and achieve success in life.

Bowl for Kids’ Sake is a great human resources tool, builds employee morale, encourages team-building, and fosters stronger relationships between co-workers. Research shows that employees feel greater pride and loyalty towards employers that both: 1) support respected non-profit agencies (like BBBS) and 2) encourage staff community involvement (like BFKS). Those who volunteer return to work with renewed enthusiasm. Come be a part of the fun!
