Also, BBBS staffers had fun volunteering for the United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County school supply drive and sort recently. “We did some networking too, with folks already asking about Bowl for Kids’ Sake dates,” said BBBS Regional Program Director Kate Shelton. “And we met someone who might be able to help with Medicaid service info on down the road.”
