Santa Cruz County Bank filled 16 bowling lanes with 70+ employees, family and friends to participate in the 2024 Bowl for Kids’ Sake April 27 at the Boardwalk Bowl, supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County.
With donations from bowlers, employees, clients and the board of directors, Santa Cruz County Bank was the top team fundraiser, generating more than $75,000.
The bank, celebrating its 20th anniversary, has participated in the annual fundraiser every year since 2004.
“Our entire team looks forward to this event every year, and this year we celebrate 20 years of community banking and 20 years of supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters,” said Krista Snelling, president and CEO of Santa Cruz County Bank. “We’re grateful for the generosity of our clients, employees, board members and leadership team who share the Bank’s support of this longtime community partner.”
For 40+ years, Big Brothers Big Sisters has created and supported one-to-one mentoring relationships for more than 8,500 youths in Santa Cruz County. The One-to-One Match Program pairs screened and trained adult volunteers with young people ages 7 – 18, providing guidance, companionship, and encouragement.
