BABI is on a mission to salute and uplift the good within our Macon County village.
As “it takes a village to raise a child” I have learned that “It takes a strong backbone to serve a community.”
At BABI- Bibs And Blankets International, our goal is to be a positive influence within the community by instilling morals and value systems that support growth and prosperity in Macon County.
We choose to honor the hardworking individuals who are serving the village with their time and energy. These citizens often go unnoticed and unrecognized.
Our goal at BABI is to dispel the negative myths about our village and to highlight all the real superheroes in the community.
