Standing together to defend potential

In a world of causes, we make a difference by creating professionally supported, one-to-one mentoring relationships for kids to realize their full potential.

Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) works to clear the path to a child’s biggest possible future by matching them with a caring, adult mentor in a one-to-one friendship. BBBS provides children (aka: a Little) with a volunteer adult mentor (aka: a Big) who serves as a consistent presence in the Little’s life. Bigs help Littles ignite, empower and defend their potential by standing with them as their cheerleader and champion.
