"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” Fred Rogers
You have an oppotunity to be a helper by donating to help support our mentoring program for kids facing adversity in our community.One of the reasons I started working with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah (BBBSU) is because I am passionate about the work they do which is helping kids who are facing adversities see their potential and have the biggest possible futures for themselves. How BBBSU does this is through one on one mentoring. The work we do is based on the best available research and is administered by caring professional along with help from our amazing volunteer mentors, "Bigs" . Together we prioritize youth protection and youth development to help kids thrive. In 2020, 1,001 Utah volunteers cumulatively devoted more than 72,000 hours to mentoring their Little Brothers and Little Sisters through the programs BBBSU offers.
We know that not everyone has is in a situation where they can donate their time to help the kids in their community but still want to do something to help and that is why I am asking for donations. By donating even a little amount, you will be helping to support the work we do so we can continue to support those mentoring relationships and help more youth in our community. Any amount helps us continue the work we do. Please consider donating to BBBSU and helping support a brighter future for Utah kids.
