ABOUT US

CHANGING PERSPECTIVES. CHANGING LIVES.

As part of the nation’s largest donor- and volunteer-supported mentoring network, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”).   We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
