Strike Out Homelessness! Bowl-A-Thon

With special thanks to our event sponsor, Citigroup!

Bradley Whitford (The West Wing, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip) joined hundreds to Strike Out Homelessness at Union Station Homeless Services' 3rd Annual Bowl-A-Thon at Bahama Lanes in Pasadena, on March 9, 2008.

Congratulations to all of our bowlers and teams, who raised more than $50,000 for our programs supporting homeless men, women and children. Each bowler raised at least $183, which is the cost to provide one day of food, shelter, and services for a homeless individual at Union Station Homeless Services.


Special thanks to the Friends of Union Station event committee:
Margo Kidushim (chair), Wendy Bienvenue, Michael Cornwell, Pat Donahue, Aarin Edwards, John Fairbanks, Yasmine Khalil, Lisa Nelson, Nancy O'Hara, Charles Trotter and Juana Turcios.

Save-the-Date for our next Bowl-A-Thon on Sunday, March 8, 2009!
