I am honored to be named one of BBBS Empower Honorees! I'm looking forward to participating in the Empower Auction on March 2 and creating a fundraising campaign to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters!
BBBS relies on staff, amazing volunteer mentors, and donors just like you to make and support Big and Little friendships in our community. When matched with a Big, 100% of Little Brothers and Sisters in St. Joseph graduated high school on-time, in 2023, and 84% report improved self-esteem.
Right now, there are over 30 Littles waiting for a Big. I'm working to reach my fundraising goal so these kids can be matched with a positive, caring mentor.
The BBBS program is free to Littles and their families, but it costs a little over $1,500 to create and support a match for a year and $228 to recruit each new Big. When you give, your generosity helps empower the potential of the next generation of college graduates, community leaders, and entrepreneurs. I hope you'll join me in my efforts to defend the potential of kids in St. Joseph by donating today.
Together, we are Defenders of Potential.
P.S. - I am looking for a wide variety of in-kind donations. If you are able to provide an in-kind donation for my live auction package or are interested in corporate sponsorship opportunities, please let me know. All financial contributions are tax deductible. Thank you for your support!
