How are other bowlers fundraising?


Some bowlers are using their pets. For example, Brielle (captain of the Bowling Bitches) captivates readers with an email from and photos of her dog, Fozzie. Photos are above and be sure to check out the email below. This email raised her over $200.


Hello, fabulous Fozzie-lover!

I bet you are surprised to get an e-mail from me. Especially one that has good spelling. That's because my mom proof-read this (because it's so important!). I'm sure you have heard of Pro-Choice Resources. They are so wonderful! They help lots and lots of women every day! I bet they would help dogs if they could, but that's not really part of their mission. (darn)

Anyway... I just wanted to e-mail you to ask you to please give some sort of donation to my mom's bowl-a-thon team, The Bowling Bitches, to help support PCR. It doesn't have to be a lot - I know times are tough (I don't get NEARLY as many treats as I want!). Even $5 would help PCR help women A LOT!

Here's the link to my mom's bowl-a-thon page: (This is where the link was.) In case you are not convinced, just look at how HAPPY I will be if you donate and how SAD I will be if you don't (poor me!).

Love & smooches all over your face,
Fozzie Pug
P.S. Thank you!! (Pugs aren't very good at remembering to say that!)


Captain of the Pin Up Girls and XXX Threat, Nikki, developed her own top ten list.

The top 10 reasons to donate to my Pro-Choice Resources bowl-a-thon team:

10) Because you know from personal experience that "Hey kids, it's better to wait to have sex. But if you decide to have sex, here's what you need to know to make healthy, informed decisions...." is more effective and realistic than "Hey kids, don't you dare have sex until you’re married!"

9) Fewer calories than that cookie donation you made to the girl scouts.

8) Because non-profit organizations that even mention abortion are eligible for FAR FEWER private or public grants than other non-profits.

7) So you can tell your crazy radical neighbor that you actually did something today to prevent an unplanned pregnancy today.

6) Because when you NEED a friend, you want one that supports your decision rather than one who judges you for making it.

5) So you can hit me up next time your fundraising for your favorite non-profit.

4) It’s tax deductible!

3) Because you think doctors are more capable of making medical decisions than legislators.

2) In some way it makes you feel like your getting back at George W Bush …just a little bit.

1) Pro-Choice Resources educates the public about ALL pregnancy options including: parenting, adoption and abortion.

Tons of bowlers have donated their Facebook and MySpace status to promote the event and their personal donation pages. Do you have a tip you'd like to share? Email Wendy and help your bowling buddies out.
