BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF MONMOUTH & MIDDLESEX COUNTIES (BBBSMMC) is partnering with HOPE FOR CHILDREN FOUNDATION to raise funds and serve more children!
THE GOAL
Recruit 30 new volunteer Bigs
Raise $60,000 to pair each of them with a child in need of a positive role model
BBBSMMC currently provides mentoring to over 700 children in Monmouth and Middlesex counties and their strategic vision for the next three years is to reach 1000 children with their services. To make this a reality there are two critical components- MENTORS AND MONEY. Hope for Children Foundation is stepping up by advocating for our agency, helping to recruit adult volunteers, and asking their network to support financially.
It costs BBBSMMC $2,000 to create each Big-Little friendship and to supervise their match for the first year. That is money well spent considering it costs close to $200,000 to incarcerate one young person for one year.
