BIG BROTHER BIG SISTER
Dinosaurs roamed the earth 65 million years ago … now they are extinct.
Children roam the streets because their parents cannot afford the school supplies to send them to school … will you let literate children become extinct?
The Big Brother Big Sister (BBBS) Community Outreach Program is here to fill that need for these children in the Philippines, especially those who live in remote mountain areas. Each year, sponsors and volunteers carry the school supplies and trek through mountain trails to give them to the children in person. On May 22 - 23 this year, BBBS will visit the communities of Cambulo and Batad in Ifugao province, Northern Luzon to distribute school packs.
For only THREE HUNDRED PHILIPPINE PESOS (P 300.00) or approximately SEVEN U.S. DOLLARS (USD 7.00), a big brother or sister may sponsor one student’s school supplies for one year.
FIVE HUNDRED children need big brothers and big sisters like YOU!
Here’s how you can be a big brother or sister:
1. Pledge to sponsor one child or more
Email to helpbbbs@gmail.com or contact Joanne Del Mindo +639163444404 / Marilet de Guzman +639285032075.
2. Come and meet the kids yourself, sign up as a BBBS volunteer*

It’s too late to revive the dinosaurs, but it’s not too late for the children. Don’t let educated children become extinct!
