There Are Currently Over 900 Children Waiting On A Mentor - Incentives to sign up include $500 Gift Certificate to Gallery Furniture and more!













BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS - INFO BELOW IS FROM The GALLERY WEBSITE - thanks efamily member Janice Weaver for sharing! https://www.galleryfurniture.com/bbbs.html
The success and betterment of Houston area families and children is a top priority for Mattress Mack and Gallery Furniture. For this reason, we are partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Houston to help connect disadvantaged Houston area children with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships with trusted mentors that will change their lives for the better, forever.

To inquire about becoming a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Houston, please fill out the form below:

SIGN ME UP!
In the Greater Houston area, there are currently over 900 children waiting on a mentor. These children and their families independently approach Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) because the child has decided they would like a mentor and has expressed this wish to their family. These families reach out to BBBS to act as the facilitator of the mentor-child relationship because the children do not simply need a mentor, they and their families hope for one.

BBBS only matches mentors with children in one-to-one relationships and does not provide group mentoring sessions or events. This allows for the child and adult to build honest and open friendships where real trust and guidance can be established.

Every mentor-child match made across programs is assigned a degreed match support specialist who checks in with the adult and child each month to ensure the match is progressing successfully. These degreed match support specialists present themselves as a resource for any and all situations that may arise during the mentor-child relationship.

Gallery Furniture and BBBS are calling for volunteers to become mentors, or “Bigs”, for the over 600 boys and 200 girls in the greater Houston area who are in need of the guidance and friendship that these relationships provide.



Male mentors are BBBS’s most difficult demographic to recruit and men of color are the most difficult within that need. The over 600 boys waiting to be matched with a mentor are disproportionately African American and most have stated that they would prefer a mentor of the same race.

These statistics have inspired Gallery Furniture to offer incentives for individuals in the Houston area who sign up as mentors through BBBS. Please read below to learn more about the program options and the requirements and incentives for becoming a BBBS mentor.

MENTOR REQUIREMENTS
In order to become a mentor you must:

Be a caring, positive person who wants to have fun
Be 18 years or older
Be able to commit to at least one year
Have a vehicle and proof of auto insurance
Have a current Driver’s License
INCENTIVES
Gallery Furniture is offering a $500 GF gift certificate to each individual who successfully completes mentor enrollment and completes the minimum requirement of 2 sessions per month for 2-3 months. Additionally, Gallery Furniture is offering a $250 GF certificate every 3 months to those who remain an active mentor and will hold a drawing every 3 months for mentors to receive another $500 GF gift certificate.


BIG BROTHER BIG SISTER MENTOR PROGRAM OPTIONS:
SCHOOL/SITE-BASED:
A Big meets with a Little 2-4 times a month throughout the school year during a non-core class, extended lunch break or after school. Bigs and Littles work on homework together, play games, throw a ball around, or simply share stories with one another.

MENTOR2.0:
A mentor is paired with a high school student at select partner schools. Mentoring takes place each week during the school year through online communication on our proprietary platform complemented with pre-scheduled in-person events every 4 to 6 weeks. mentor2.0 is more flexible on the mentor’s schedule and designed to help students graduate high school prepared for the future.

COMMUNITY BASED:
A Big is matched with a Little ages 6-14 with the commitment to see each other two to four times per month for a couple hours. Matches spend time together in the local community and plan their own outings, based on activities they like to do, such as playing catch, reading books, or getting ice cream.

We encourage you to visit http://www.bbbstx.org/houston/get-involved/be-a-big/#faq1 where you can read Frequently Asked Question’s about BBBS and find the program which best suits you.

Thank you for your interest in mentoring a disadvantaged child in the Greater Houston area through Big Brothers Big Sisters. A representative from BBBS will contact you soon. Your compassion for the needs of Houston's children is truly appreciated by Mattress Mack, Gallery Furniture and BBBS. God bless you!

Effectiveness of Early Voting Centers - thanks Janice Weaver for sharing!

"Voting centers prove popular as half of Harris County voters cast ballots outside home precincts"
-Houston Chronicle, 11/26/19

Dear Janice,


As we approach this Thanksgiving Holiday, I am so thankful for the support of people like you. I am also thankful for our many community partners who have been there for us to help make all of our first year achievements possible.

1. Countywide Voting Centers - As promised, my team and I have made voting simpler and more convenient by making it possible to #voteYOURway at any location on Election Day.Half of the voters this November chose a location other than their home location.

2. Extended Early Voting Hours - We wanted to make sure that our hard working families had time to vote before or after work during both weeks of Early Voting instead of just one.

3. Additional Early Voting Locations - We opened 6 new Early Voting sites including the campuses of Texas Southern University and the University of Houston bringing the total number of Early Voting locations to 52.

4. Textbot Poll Finder and Wait Time Features - We developed 2 new features to tell you how to find the nearest voting location and also how to find the shortest lines.

5. Election Judge Training - We improved our election judge training and included additional ADA and sensitivity training for all election workers. In fact, Harris County is the first county in Texas to include information on supporting transgender and nonbinary voters.

6. More Transparent Website - We updated the harrisvotes.com website by including information on the application process for Voting Centers, easy to find election reports, and added aCommunity Toolkit with downloadable assets.

7. New Wallisville Annex - We opened our 11th annex location so that customers would not have to drive so far to get copies of vital documents.

8. Sexual Harrassment Training - All 333 employees completed Sexual Harrassment and Sensitivity training.

9. ADA Lawsuit - We settled a six year old ADA lawsuit from the last administration by providing greater access for all voters.

10. New Marriage License - We created a new more modern design with a new Harris County Clerk logo showing the skyline of "can do" city of Houston.

With your continuing help, the sky is the limit as to what we can accomplish together. Thank you again for standing with me and for your support. Best wishes to you and yours for a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Onward!

Signature - Diane (sharpee)

For students in elementary it's only $5 to join! You can get an account for FREE and see the info on the site! Parents start early getting your kids comfortable with STEM!

I was on the site as our Port City Links Chapter has 3 NSBEJR chapters at 3 schools - Young Women's College Prep (award winning chapter middle and high school girls), BlueRidge elementary (Pearland), and Gregg Elementary (HISD). We also volunteer at Codwell Elementary and Young Elementary. Volunteers and partners include NASA's African American Employee Resource Group, Worley Corporation, Society of Women Engineers and the Houston Area Urban League. We conduct Science Fairs, STEM speakers from MAD Science to TSU and PV undergrads, grad students and Professors presentations to the students as well as field trips to NASA. If you or your organization would like to join us as a volunteer in the schools let me know at donna.blackshear.reynolds@gmail.com. Contact me also for more information on our efforts and how you or your corporation can help. Every time we volunteer we see the impact on these students - some areas have large homeless populations (students living in shelters) having breakfast, lunch and dinner at the schools - can you give an hour a week, a month, or have a partnership to bring in volunteers or sponsors - let me know!

Stanford Center for Education Policy Analysis - My Brother's Keeper Led to a Significant Reduction in DropOuts!

A 2019
@stanfordcepa
report finds that the AAMA program, part of President Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper’s initiative, led to a significant reduction in the number of Black males who dropped out of high school. Check it out! https://stanford.io/2O2SKm0

My Brother’s Keeper? The Impact of Targeted Educational Supports
Author/s: Thomas S. Dee , Emily Penner
Year of Publication: 2019
The My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) Challenge developed by President Obama supports communities that promote civic initiatives designed to improve the educational and economic opportunities specifically for young men of color. In Oakland, California, the MBK educational initiative features the African American Male Achievement (AAMA) program. The AAMA focuses on regularly scheduled classes exclusively for Black, male students and taught by Black, male teachers who focus on social-emotional training, African-American history, culturally relevant pedagogy, and academic supports. In this study, we present quasi-experimental evidence on the dropout effects of the AAMA by leveraging its staggered scale-up across high schools in the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD). We find that AAMA availability led to a significant reduction in the number of Black males who dropped out as well as smaller reductions among Black females, particularly in 9th grade.

Earl Carl Institute Fundraiser to help those in need of Legal Aid


Hello,
I am on the fundraising committee of the Earl Carl Institute, a non profit legal and writing think tank at Thurgood Marshall School of Law. The Institute has a fundraising goal of $30,000 to bring on an additional staff person to help meet the Institute's burgeoning commitment to the community it serves. This includes seniors challenging the loss of their property, individuals fighting wrongful convictions, and juveniles needing free representation in school hearings. The ECI trains law students to teach children their civic rights and responsibilities and sponsors symposiums on topics such as child victim forensics and indigent defense. Please join me in supporting this incredible local organization by visiting earlcarlinstitute.org to learn more. No donation is too small and every donation is much appreciated.
