Our organization also provides basic needs items to low-income and poor residents in the County. Every year we facilitate a back to school event called "Supplying Our Students with Success" in which we provide book bags filled with school supplies by age group, personal hygiene products, socks, shoes, vouchers for haircuts (while supplies last) and opportunity to receive uniforms items if available along with food and festivities. BOTB has also provided youth in various communities with transportation assistance, leadership education, community service hours, bicycles and toys during the holidays. BOTB is also committed to providing services to senior residents in the surrounding communities through hot meal lunches, various health and wellness programs and workshops.
