Letter from our 2008 BFKS Chairperson

Dear Peel Resident,

It seems that each week, we hear stories involving vandalism or violence directed at the youth within our community. As a police officer,

I understand the enormous strain these incidents place on our community’s limited resources. For 40 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Peel has been providing at-risk youth with positive adult role models who help children overcome enormous obstacles.

There are no real tricks to mentoring! The magic is that mentoring is a powerful tool where a child gains stability, support and guidance through their relationship with a caring adult role model. Studies show children and youth, provided with reliable and consistent adult mentoring relationships, are better able to cope with the challenges of life.

This year we invite you to join us on the lanes as we strive to raise funds for the 1,310 children within Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring programs. With your help, we can strengthen our community, one child at a time.

Sincerely,

Constable Wendy Britton

2008 BFKS Chairperson
