January is a month of celebrations: National Mentoring Month and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service.  Dr. King sought to forge the common ground on which people from all walks of life could join together to address important community issues. Service, he realized, was the great equalizer.

During this month, Big Brothers Big Sisters recognizes the power of mentoring – an invaluable service to our youth – that helps them realize their potential and achieve their dreams. Dr. King believed that everyone should have the opportunity to live out their dreams.

You can honor the memory of Dr. King today by volunteering and sending an ecard to Tell-a-Guy  about the need for Big Brothers and Big Sisters.

Caring and action make dreams come true. Right now one of our greatest needs is for Big Brothers, especially African-American men. And you can help!

Here are some ways you can honor the memory of Dr. King, and help a young person to grow up strong and follow their dreams:

• Volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters: Volunteer Now »
• Help recruit men to be Big Brother for the many boys who want and need a mentor: Tell-a-Guy »
• Learn more about how you can participate in the Martin Luther King, Day of Service: MLKDay.org »

Thank you for supporting Big Brothers Big Sisters.

Sincerely,
 

Erin Cornelius
