BB CARES 2010

 

What truly is BB CARES? Why are we doing this every year? What do we really hope to achieve?

BB CARES is about…
BB CARES (Community Acitivities Rallying Everyone to Serve) aims to involve all our BB Companies to provide a day of fun and meaningful BEFRIENDING activities for beneficiaries of various welfare agencies. They could belong to the low income group and usually consist of the elderly, children / youth or people with special needs such as intellectually disabled or hearing impaired.

 

We also encourage our BB Companies to commit to working with the same welfare agencies every BB CARES. When we establish a relationship, our community work just get more fulfilling!

 

BB CARES is also part of The President’s Challenge 2010.   

 

We organise BB CARES because...
BB CARES is a wonderful learning opportunity for our Boys! Interacting with the less fortunate let our Boys see another side of our society. That way, they learn the value of gratitude, the project becomes more rewarding and they pick up leadership skill along the way too!

 

Developing our Youths.
Teach and nurture our Boys to serve and lead with BB CARES. Let them take the lead while we as Officers facilitate. The activity need not be complicated; a day at the beach for the kids, a trip to the zoo for the elderly folks. You will be surprised at how simple outings such as these meant to them. This is especially so when our Boys take the effort to chat with them, take good care of them and ensure they have a great time.

 

When Boys learn the value behind every task, the process of planning the programmes becomes more fulfilling. The beneficiaries are going to enjoy the Boys’ effort and the Boys themselves gain an intangible value!

 So, let’s enhance our Boys’ learning with Service-Learning (SL)! The worksheets (for Faciliators and the Boys) are available for downloading on this page.  

 

Rally Everyone to Serve!

Don't forget to encourage your Boys to "rally everyone to serve"! BB CARES is one great opportunity to engage your school. So do invite fellow classmates, friends from other UGs, teachers, families and churches.
