IC BBBS is in need of shoeboxes

By Patricia Rodriguez, November 16, 2021

Hello! 

My name is Hope Borsic, I am a junior and the President of Ithaca College Big Brother Big Sisters (BBBS). As an organization we partner with the Ithaca Youth  bureau and the Tompkins county chapter of BBBS to provide local youth with college and adult mentors. Our goal for this semester is to provide every matched mentor and mentee with goodie boxes of supplies too make their time together more fun and meaningful. Intergenerational mentorship is vital for not only the kids involved but also the college students who get the opportunity to mentor and be involved in the community. We are in need of shoe boxes to wrap up, decorate and hand out to the matched Bigs and Littles before Christmas. If you have any shoe boxes laying around you’d be willing to donate please reach out to us at ithacabigs@gmail.com . Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions about donating or being involved in what our student organization is doing.

 Thank you in advance,
