Big Brothers Big Sisters raised nearly $20,000 in a two-day bowling event, April 12 and 14, through its annual 103.1 Jack FM Bowl for Kids Sake.
The money raised will be used to match children with mentors. The organization is currently seeing mentors for than 100 children waiting in Greater Victoria.
Teams and individuals collected pledges before tying up their bowling shoes.
“It was a really nice warm-heard event,” said Rhonda Brown, executive director.
