UNUM RETIREES ~ Volunteers   

by Beverly J. Dahms

The Unum Retirees have been contacted by Big Brother Big Sisters of Southern Maine to assist them with their
Big Big Book Sale on March 19th & 20th.   We wanted to feature them in our newsletter to bring awareness of their
 involvement in the community.

Enriching the Lives of Southern Maine’s Children…

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Maine is focused on helping children discover their potential and find their places in society.
Through the nurturing guidance of an adult mentor, every child can achieve and become an active and productive member of the
community. It is our mission to ensure that children in Southern Maine who are in need of caring mentors are given this opportunity.

 on prevention, primarily through professionally supported one-to-one relationships with volunteers, enriching their lives and our community.
