Events

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County now holds three major fundraisers each year. All events are open to the public and everyone is heartily invited to attend and partake in the fun. We have Bowl For Kid's Sake, the Big Food Truck and Brewers Challenge at Roaring Camp Railroads in May, and the Annual Day on the Monterey Bay Regatta hosted by the Santa Cruz Yacht Club.

Bowl For Kids' Sake

For the first time in our history, we've had to cancel all Live events including our signature Bowl for Kids' Sake, which represents a significant portion of our annual budget. This change has the potential to disrupt services to the youth we serve. We find ourselves in an urgent situation that we hope can be remedied with your support.

Day on the Monterey Bay Regatta

Day on the Monterey Bay Regatta is sponsored by the Santa Cruz Yacht Club and will be held at the Santa Cruz Harbor on Sunday, September 6th. There will be a sailing race followed by music as you pick up your gourmet takeaway meal, online Silent Auction and raffle as well. The Special $100 raffle has 2 fantastic vacation destination trips + cash to use towards airfare included with each prize!

Make A Match

With the guidance and friendship of caring mentors, children served by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County are not limited by their circumstances. Mentors help provide children facing adversity the foundation and support to do better in school and make better life choices.

Match of the Year

Each year Big Brothers Big Sisters honors one match who exemplifies our core mission and vision. The award celebrates a Match that shows significant growth and impact in the life of a child in our community.
