Our COUL kids had a fun time learning about robotics with Scouting America. Their creativities were put on display as their drawings were the pathway for the robots. Not only that, but we also had the chance to enjoy the warm summer weather together and played outside.

We want to share something with you as we head into summer.

BBBS of Berks County is building something new this year. A structured individual giving program. A real email list. A rebuilt Facebook presence. A foundation for the next 55 years.
None of that happens without your early support.

Thank you for believing in this organization before everything was polished. You are not just funding programs. You are helping us build the infrastructure to serve more children for years to come.

We know what you might be thinking: I do not have time to be a Big.

Here is what we know: you might have more than you think.

Our COUL program asks for just 6 activities per year. Our SMART program is 4 to 5 hours per month, during school hours. Our One-To-One program is 8 to 10 hours per month, with complete flexibility on timing and activities.

There is a way to be a Big that fits your life. Start the conversation at bigsinberks.org.

I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for Ice Cream! This past Tuesday, our COUL Littles got together to kick off the summer with an Ice Cream Social with one another. A day filled with games, music, laughter, good company, and cold sweets is just what was needed to enjoy the start of the new season!

You have probably heard of Big Brothers Big Sisters. But did you know our local chapter has been right here in Berks County since 1968?

We are your neighbors. We serve your neighbors' children. And every program we offer is completely free to families.

Today, we are asking you to invest locally. Not in a national campaign. Not in a faraway cause. In the kids down the street who need one consistent adult in their corner.

Give at bigsinberks.org/ or text BERKS to 269-89.

Here is what your support looks like on an ordinary Thursday:
A Big picks up their Little after school. They grab a snack, talk about nothing important, and somehow cover everything that matters.

That hour is one of approximately 15,000 mentoring hours BBBS of Berks County delivers every year.

Every one of those hours is funded by donors who chose to defend a child's potential. Thank you for choosing to be one of them.
