Kroger Employees
Donate to Big Brothers Big Sisters
Kroger store in Sidney employees recently donated over 200 snack bags
to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby and Darke County to be used in
their after school “Buddies” programs.
The funding comes at an opportune time for the agency which is kicking
off its 15th year of the after school “Buddies” program in six
elementary schools in Shelby & Darke County. Big Brothers Big
Sisters will serve around 180 children under the age of 18 through the
after school program. “This donation is such a wonderful gesture from
such a generous company in our Shelby County community. We feel very
grateful that they chose Big Brothers Big Sisters to assist in this
manner.” Executive Director, Jennifer Bruns reports.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Shelby & Darke County is a nonprofit
organization whose mission is to provide children facing adversity with
strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships
that change their lives for the better, forever. The relationship
is meant to guide each child towards becoming a confident, competent,
and caring individual. Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer may
call the office at 547-9622 or 492-7611 or go to
