In a rare three-word message, Joe is spreading the word this week about Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Maine.  Committed to making a positive difference in the lives of young people by helping them grow up healthy and ready for the future, BBBS serves hundreds of children each year. Since 1995, the organization has matched caring adult and high school-aged volunteers with children to foster nurturing, professionally-supported, one-to-one mentor relationships. These are matches that truly change lives -- for both the children and adults who are involved. January is "mentor month"- there's no better time to get involved with this organization! Also, Saturday, January 24th is the Annual Horne Pond Fishing Derby at Horne Pond in Limington. The more people enter, the more proceeds go to Big Brothers Big Sisters, so if you're free on Saturday and want to help out a good cause, Joe says you should check it out. Find more about the organization at its website, and more about the event here. Joe hopes the event is a great success!
