Bigger Brothers Bigger Sisters of Northern Nevada
As we take the 1st few steps into the New Year...it is a great time to remember those who have helped us reach this point in our lives.
January is National Mentoring Month! A time to both thank the people in your life who have helped you along your path and a time to help others choose a better path for their future.
Make one or possibly both of these simple resolutions this year- and you will find it is quite easy to keep:
1. Send a quick note or phone call to a mentor in your life- and
thank them for their obvious... or not so obvoius...guidance.
2. Please consider signing up to be a mentor for a child and changing a life forever... while of course, having a great time yourself.
Contact us to sign up! www.bbbsnn.org
