This is the tenth edition of the Rochester Ultimate Benefit Tournament. After five years of contributing to the Strong Childrens' Hospital and four years of contributing to Flower City Habitat for Humanity, all proceeds from RUB X will go to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Rochester . Big Brothers Big Sisters of America is the nation's oldest and largest youth mentoring organization. Since 1904, caring adult volunteers have been helping millions of children reach their full potential and fulfill their dreams. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Rochester matches children with promise with adults committed to investing time and sharing the way to a better future.
Matches can last until a child graduates from high school.
A Big Brother or Big Sister is a mentor, friend, and a true role model who helps a child develop the self-esteem and life skills necessary to become a healthy, productive adult. Mentoring can help a child grow into a confident, competent, and caring individual. A Big Brother or Big Sister can divert a child from turning to drugs, alcohol, early pregnancy, violence, or other unhealthy avenues of seeking identity.
