Big Brothers Big Sisters of Mississippi’s Vision
“To reduce the number of at-risk children; thereby, increasing the number of productive,
caring adults in Mississippi’s communities.” Joel Waters, Executive Director
We are promoting the Big Brothers Big Sisters programs in our community with
informational meetings called "Little Moments ". We do not ask the guests for anything!
The goal of the meeting is to explain the scope and impact of the organization and to get the
word out to the community.
These meetings are held in a variety of locations throughout the year. Please call the BBBS of Mississippi for a schedule of “Little Moments” Events

Mississippi Is Bowling For Kids Sake
Bowl for Kids' Sake
It's not about bowling! Bowl for Kids' Sake is an annual fundraising program for Big Brothers Big Sisters where you can be a bowler, a team captain, a sponsor, or all three. When you bowl for us you get to enjoy a fun outing with friends, family, colleagues, your civic group or faith group, and help us in our most important annual fundraiser. It's not the score that matters! Bowl For Kids' Sake bowlers and sponsors are people just like you who want to give back to children right here at home. It doesn't matter if you're a league bowler or have never bowled before. All the money you help raise goes directly toward matching children with caring adult volunteers in our community. For bowlers and sponsors alike, the greatest satisfaction comes from knowing you've helped kids in your community. Have fun with friends, to help kids! First you call the Big Brothers Big Sisters Agency at 601-961-9286 to locate the Bowl For Kids’ Sake nearest you. As a team captain you get to organize your own group of 4-5 bowlers. As a bowler, you sign up sponsors (friends, colleagues, neighbors, etc.) on the Donation sheet or Website. We suggest a minimum Donation of $10.00. Then, you just go have fun bowling at your local Bowling Center. There will be free refreshments and door prizes! Each team member that secures a minimum of $100 will receive a t-shirt.
Bowl For Kids’ Sake events are being held throughout Mississippi in February and March.
Please contact us for a location near you.
