Battle of the Banks Bowl a thon to support Junior Achievement

Eager to prove that you’ve got what it takes in banking? How about bowling? How about making a difference in children’s lives?

Join Junior Achievement of the Hudson Valley, Inc. in the 2011 Battle of the Banks Bowl-a-thon

Be a part of the Bowl for Kids fundraiser to support Junior Achievement’s educational programs teaching work readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy skills in local classrooms. Students will gain understanding in financial basics such as saving, budgeting, the value of education and how that translates to their future success!

Join your fellow bankers and prove your dollars and sense savvy to raise money for JA programs and help provide kids with the skills, knowledge and motivation to be successful in school, in the workplace, and in life!

The bank which raises the most money has the honor of displaying the Junior Achievement of the Hudson Valley Battle of the Banks Bowl for Kids trophy for the coming year!

How it works: Recruit teams of 5 bowlers and rally to raise pledges from their friends, family, co-workers either online or in person. You can earn great prizes based on the levels of fundraising. Then attend the Bowl for Kids for a night of bowling, music, prizes and fun!
