The Factory Ministries, 3293 Lincoln Highway East, Paradise, will host the "b.i.g. SHOTS" fundraiser on Friday, March 10, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Individuals and business representatives from across the county will each shoot 100 free throws. Money will be pledged by made free throw. Food and tours of The Factory will be available throughout the day.

Baron Insurance Group conceived of the event six years ago, and proceeds aid individuals who are living in poverty. Last year, on average, each shooter raised more than $917.
