Bigs + littles = matches

Big Brothers Big Sisters matches school age children with mentors in professionally supported one-to-one relationships. We target the children who need us the most, including those living in single parent homes, growing up in poverty, lose of a parent, and coping with parental incarceration. Our services are very unique in their combination of informal friendship with the support of professional case management.

How a big becomes a big

And a little a little

 

A lot of things have to happen before we make a match. All of our Bigs go through a thorough background check and careful interview process. We then match Bigs and Littles based on location, personalities and preferences. We provide full support along the way — so that matches can grow into lasting friendships.

What bigs and littles do

  • Playing Ball
  • Sharing a pizza
  • Taking a walk in the park
  • Playing a board game
  • Or just hanging out and talking

Agency Activities

In addition to our one-to-one mentoring programs, we facilitate several wrap-around support opportunities that include food assistance, back-to-school supplies drive, and group activities throughout the year such as our Easter Egg Dash, Big Splash Summer Picnic, and holiday party.
