Instagram post 2227391743906007404_6315484911 Today we had the awesome opportunity to host a Chattanooga Police Department front porch line up in our neighborhood, at our office on Bailey Avenue. It was a privilege to meet and talk with all of the officers that serve and protect us on a daily basis. We are so grateful for our #BigsInBlue partnership and look forward to matching more officers with kids in the future. 💙🚔👩‍✈️👨‍✈️ #ignitepotential #biggertogether #mentoringmatters

Instagram post 2223456943818128675_6315484911 We’re proud to announce that last night, students were inducted into the Erlanger Institute of Healthcare and Innovation program at The Howard School! Many of these students are a part of our exciting new E-Mentoring program that launched in November of last year. This program aims to prepare high school students for success in college and the workforce, by matching them with a mentor in the healthcare field. They communicate with each other weekly via email and have monthly in-person group meetings activities during the school year. We’re honored to partner with Hamilton County’s Future Ready Institute (The Howard School) and Erlanger Health System, helping our youth reach their full potential through jump-starting college education and working towards their future careers. #BiggerTogether #MentoringMatters #DefendersofPotential
Instagram post 2222668408575999119_6315484911 It’s Bethany's 1-year work anniversary- yeah! 🎉 We’re so lucky to have Bethany as a team member. She is usually the first person anyone talks to when they call our office and she processes all of our awesome Bigs and Littles. She also plans all of the fun group activities for our matches. She is such a fun and bubbly spirit and we love her incredible attitude. Title: Customer Relations and Activities Coordinator Favorite Childhood Activity: Going out to breakfast with my dad on Saturday mornings. He would wake me and my siblings up early, around 6 am, and we would just jump in the car to go. It was so much fun! Why she loves BBBSChatt: “I love that we are able to provide kids with experiences that they might not have a chance to try outside of the program. I think hands-on experience is one of the driving forces of imagination, creativity, understanding others, and discovering our own passions in the world. The kids we work with have so much to give, and it’s great to be a support for them to explore their dreams and reach goals.” Bethany is so passionate about our mission and it shows in every interaction with our community. Help us show Bethany some love! 💛
