POLK COUNTY—Big Brothers Big Sisters of Polk County has announced that its fall fundraiser, originally scheduled at the Mimosa Inn on October 17, has been postponed until early November. The final date for the event is yet to be decided and will be announced next week.

In light of Hurricane Helene’s impact, the organization’s big brothers and big sisters have been actively involved in delivering services and support to families in need and assisting other organizations in the community with recovery efforts.

The organization expressed enthusiasm for rescheduling the fundraising event, emphasizing that the proceeds will benefit BBBS and other individuals and organizations involved in the recovery efforts. They aim to positively impact morale and provide support to the entire community.

Bill Smith, council chairman, expressed gratitude for Big Brothers Big Sisters’ contributions and continuing support as they celebrate 25 years of serving underserved youth in Polk County.
