The Nashville Preds are supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) of Middle Tennessee with grant funding. The Nashville Predators Foundation awarded BBBS a $5,000 grant to fun involvement programs and active healthy living engagement activities for volunteers and children mentoring the program.
The average cost for BBBS to mentor a child is $1,000, which includes background checks, recruitment and outreach. All of this is made possible by donations and your donations provide ongoing support for children, families and volunteers to build and sustain long-lasting relationships.
“Big Brothers Big Sisters improves children’s chances for succeeding in school, behaving nonviolently, avoiding drugs and alcohol and breaking negative cycles. This is perfectly in line with the mission of the Nashville Predators Foundation, striving to meet the educational, social, health and cultural needs of our community by offering unique resources and financial support to local youth-oriented organizations,” said the recent announcement.
