Sunday, August 10th, our community came together for YES Institute’s 7th Annual Bowling with a Purpose Tournament fundraiser – and it was one for the books! Families and friends filled twelve lanes, enjoying friendly competition while celebrating our mission to prevent suicide and ensure the healthy development of all youth.

One attendee summed it up perfectly:

“We enjoyed the event very much, and loved spending time with such a fun-loving group of friends and families. Well organized and stupendous fun!”

We are especially grateful for our dedicated sponsors this year: EC Packaging Corp. Inc., Grove Bank & Trust, Scott Huizenga, Titan Repro, KW Realty, Sports Grill Restaurants, Samuel Spencer Blum Esq, Docurapid Corp., Deli Lane Cafe & Tavern, Emilio Vazquez, NxtEdge by DiningEdge, and the Mofsky-McLean Family. Your generosity keeps our work moving forward.

The day featured a lively silent auction, a raffle with multiple prizes, and a special award for our top bowler, Collins Fields, Sr.
Our Media Gallery has some highlights!

To everyone who came out, donated, and celebrated alongside us – thank you for making this year’s Bowling with a Purpose Tournament such a memorable success!
