Our Service Area:
The Copper Corridor
Our service area covers a number of small, close-knit rural communities. Once thriving mining towns, unemployment and poverty are now significantly higher than the national and state averages.
Through our four main programs, SBCO aims to improve the quality of life and long-term prospects for children in this area. Whether we’re feeding families, providing school wardrobes and post-high school scholarships, or partnering with schools and nonprofits to offer otherwise unavailable enrichment activities, SBCO is committed to offering the opportunities kids need to succeed.

Events
SBCO hosts four annual events: Walk for Kids, Food Drive, Home Tour, and the Holiday Adopt Program. The Walk and Home Tour raise funds to support our programs, but more importantly help us inform residents about the work we do and recruit new volunteers. The Food Drive fights food insecurity by supporting the Tri-Community Food Bank in Mammoth with donations of food and money. The Holiday Adopt Program provides clothing, toys and household goods for families in Hayden-Winkleman, San Manuel, and Oracle as well as toys and clothing for children on the San Carlos Apache Reservation.
