Pins & Purpose 2025: Striking Fun for a Great Cause

A Community Coming Together

On Friday, August 1, 2025, bowlers of all ages and skill levels came together at Bowlero Gulf Gate Lanes in Sarasota for an afternoon of strikes, smiles, and community spirit. Hosted by the RASM REALTORS® Charitable Foundation (RRCF), Pins & Purpose was more than just a fun day on the lanes—it was a successful fundraiser to support the RRCF’s mission of helping housing-focused nonprofits, providing scholarships, and offering emergency assistance to REALTORS® in need.

From REALTORS® and Business Partners to families and friends, the event was a true community celebration filled with friendly competition, plenty of laughter, and moments of connection.
