Give your child the gift of a mentor — and a new friend.
When people think of mentoring programs, they think of Big Brothers Big Sisters. As an established youth organization,
for more than 100 years we’ve worked to develop youth mentoring programs that work. Our experienced approach to
recruiting, screening, matching and supporting our mentoring relationships has resulted in thousands of lasting
relationships, and helped change the lives of young people across the country.

Our Impact.
A study on the Big Brothers Big Sisters youth organization found that kids matched with a Big Brother or Big Sister:
Are more confident
Are more likely to steer clear of drugs and alcohol
Do better in school
Get along better with their family and friends
Feel better about themselves.
Parents are our Partners.
We’ll work closely with you because your input is important. Not only do you provide information
about your child’s strengths and needs, but you approve the selection of the Big Brother or Big Sister.
Once the match is made, parents remain closely involved in several key ways.

Your child's safety is very important to us.
Big Brothers Big Sisters conducts a thorough background check on every volunteer in our mentoring
programs and every match is regularly reviewed by a professional trained match coordinator.
