A recent bowling fundraiser scored big for local non-profit groups.
The 7th annual Bowling Stones event took place on Saturday at Chatham Bowlerama, raising $27,000.
The event saw 18 teams competing with around 85 people in attendance.
Proceeds from the event will support Outreach for Hunger, Community Living Chatham-Kent, and the St. Clair College Bursary Fund.
“Community Living Chatham-Kent (CLC-K) is extremely grateful to be a part of this fantastic event,” said Nicole Roeszler, Manager of Community Relations with Community Living Chatham-Kent in a news release. “All funds raised for CLC-K will enrich the lives of people who have diverse abilities by providing quality services, and meaningful and inclusive opportunities.”
“Chatham Outreach for Hunger is happy to say that this year’s bowling event has raised much needed funds which will be used to provide nutritious meals to food insecure families,” added Outreach for Hunger Executive Director Brenda LeClair. “Outreach is grateful for the generosity of our community and the efforts the Bowling Stones put into ensuring a successful event.”
