Our Mission
3B Brae’s Brown Bags, founded by 13-year-old Braeden Mannering, provides homeless and low-income populations with access to healthy foods, clean water and contact information for additional services which can aid them. His ongoing mission is not only to feed people today, but to raise awareness about the problems of food insecurity and poverty, and empower and inspire youth across the nation to become part of the solution. This is why we launched 3B Ripple Student Chapters to get youth involved in public service and hunger relief! And we have learned that their hearts are bigger than their bodies!
Our Event
Each year at our annual 3B Summer Celebration we invite the community to attend so we can thank them for their support and their encouragement. It is free to attend as a way to say thank you to our community.
This year we are celebrating on Saturday, August 19, 2017 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. and the Bear-Glasgow YMCA is again graciously allowing us to use their pavilion behind their building.
Braeden always comes up with a cool theme and this year he chose “Ohana” which is to show everyone who attends that we are all in this together!
