It is a BBR tradition to make a charitable donation in honor of our clients and friends during the holiday season. This year, we are proud to support Crisis Text Line, a free, 24/7 emotional support hotline service that provides confidential one-on-one assistance via text message. Crisis Text Line’s live counselors practice active listening to help texters find calm, create an action plan to stay safe and healthy, and, if necessary, to trigger an appropriate aid response. We are especially mindful of the many people in need of their support during the holidays.

It is a BBR tradition to make a donation in honor of our clients during the holiday season. At the close of 2014, we proudly donate to Doctors Without Borders, a private, international association made up primarily of doctors and healthcare workers. Doctors Without Borders provides assistance to populations in distress, to victims of natural or man-made disasters, and to victims of armed conflict, irrespective of race, religion, creed, or political convictions. This year, in particular, we are mindful of people around the world whose daily lives are impacted by difficult circumstances such as the Ebola outbreak and ongoing conflict, and want to support this organization’s work to mitigate those conditions.

BBR had 20 participants demonstrate their commitment “to change the face of men’s health” by growing a moustache during the month of November. With support from colleagues, this group raised almost $5,000 for The Movember Foundation.

BBR sent a volunteer team to participate in FeedingNYC, a community effort to provide Thanksgiving meals to New Yorkers in need. The team successfully delivered 350 meals to families throughout Harlem and the Bronx.
