Committee awards funding to BBBS
The Ruth & Emerson Booher Committee Advised Fund for Versailles of
the Dayton Foundation has recently donated funds to Big Brothers
Big Sisters of Shelby and Darke County. This funding will
be used by Big Brothers Big Sisters to aid in the after school Buddies
program that is offered at Versailles Schools. Currently, there
are around 350 children served in Shelby and Darke County through both
the community based and after school programs in both
counties and the number keeps rising.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County is a nonprofit
organization whose mission is to develop and mature quality
relationships between children and volunteers. The relationship
is meant to guide each child towards becoming a confident, competent,
and caring individual. If anyone is interested in becoming a volunteer,
you may call the office at 547-9622 or 492-7611.
