Studies show that over 13 percent of US households were food insecure at some point during 2023, due to a lack of financial resources. Bowling For Turkeys is committed to reducing this number. Through sponsorships, donations, and ticket sales, we aim to expand our reach and make a greater impact in the fight against hunger.
The idea for Bowling For Turkeys was created by Loren Braxton as a way to give back to the community (Detroit Metro Area) on his birthday by combining two of his passions--helping those in need and bowling. Through the years, the event has raised significant funds, all of which have gone directly to local food banks, shelters and families in need.
We plan to continue this tradition and grow the event to assist even more people this year and beyond. Since its founding in November 2015, Bowling For Turkeys has expanded each year, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, supporters, and the dedication of volunteers. Though we were temporarily paused, initially due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are excited to relaunch in 2024, here in Arizona. With continued community engagement, drive and determination, we are confident in our ability to expand the event’s scale and impact.
