There
are hundreds of children in El Dorado County who need warm clothing for
the cold winter months ahead and whose families are not financially
able to provide for some of the most basic essentials.
There
will be 150 children, ‘Littles” and their siblings, who are supported
by Big Brothers Big Sisters of El Dorado County, along with 150 shopping
helpers, 20 volunteers on “Chaos Control,” and the generous sponsors
from Waste Connections, Freight Solution Providers, El Dorado Hills Fire Department and US Bank.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of El Dorado County helps children with the support of generous sponsors, donors and mentors. Go to bbbs-edc.org, to contribute or learn how to become a mentor to the nearly 50 kids still looking for a “Big,” in their life.
