Brothers Uniting the Community
The Bridgeton Area Brothers United (BABU) consists of fifteen (15) board members born in Bridgeton and from other areas of Cumberland County. From the early 1960s to the mid-1980s, BABU board members lived and grew up competing against each other in baseball, basketball, football, wrestling, and track and field.
The south side neighborhood rivalries, consisting of the Maple and Birch Street Projects versus Pamphylia Street, or the Amity Height Project or the Hill, kept us in check as we battled in football without shoulder and knee pads, mouth guards, or helmets. Those competitive games prepared us at an early age to compete, set goals, exercise patience, decision-making, teamwork, leadership, and so many more qualities that propelled us through and beyond college, military service, and professional careers of all types.
We were blessed by God for the opportunity to grow up in Bridgeton and gain from many life experiences that made us successful men with a common goal of giving our time, money, resources and supporting and aiding the youth, Bridgeton, and area communities to flourish and prosper.
