PR & Recruitment
Have you seen us
in the paper or heard people talking about us? Lots of efforts
have been made lately to spread the word about BBBS. We continue
to be on the radio and have had numerous articles in the local
papers. We ask
all of you to pass the BBBS message to those in your circle
and friends, to your relatives, and to groups. We would like
to be able to match all of the waiting Littles and to involve
children that would like a mentor in our program! Thank you
all for your support!
