Get Involved
Four ways
to move this forward.
Money, equipment, lane time, or expertise — all four are things we genuinely need right now.
Donate
Where your
money goes.
Path2Pocket Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity (EIN 39-3778792), so your gift is tax-deductible. We're small enough that a single donation is visible in what we can run next month.
- Drilling and fitting for a donated ball at our partner pro shop.
- Bowling equipment — balls, shoes, and bags for those in need.
- Lane time and equipment for a group at a demo day and clinic.
- Oil pattern practice sessions so bowlers can train on real competitive conditions.
- Coaching from USBC certified coaches and touring professionals.
- Educational videos that carry the teaching beyond the people in the building.
- The scholarship fund — youth awards toward school, and adult awards toward training.
Donations are processed through Zeffy, a platform built for nonprofits that passes 100% of your gift to us. You'll receive a tax receipt automatically.
Sponsor
For manufacturers,
centers & businesses.
Brunswick Bowling showed what a good sponsorship looks like: retired equipment that would otherwise sit in a warehouse becomes our entire education program. There's room for more partners like that.
- Equipment sponsor. Manufacturers and distributors donating retired or overstock balls, shoes, and bags.
- Event sponsor. Underwrite a demo day, clinic, or Pro-Am end to end.
- Scholarship sponsor. Fund a named youth or adult training scholarship.
- Center & pro shop partners. Lane time, drilling, and fitting contributed in kind.
Volunteer
Coaches and
hands, both.
Our events run on people who know the sport and people willing to work a registration table. We need both.
- Coaching. Certified coaches and experienced bowlers who can work with a lane of new bowlers.
- Pro shop support. Drilling and fitting time donated at events.
- Event operations. Registration, scoring, setup, and teardown at demo days and tournaments.
- Behind the scenes. Grant writing, bookkeeping, video, and social media.
Host
Bring a clinic
to your house.
Bowling centers, schools, youth programs, and USBC associations across the tri-state area can host a Path2Pocket demo day or clinic. We bring the equipment and the instruction.
