Support from individuals like you is vital to provide mentors for children in our community. And we know they need them. It isn’t easy being a kid these days. In these complex and confusing times, children need a caring adult to be a mentor and a friend — someone they can talk to, have fun with, and learn from.
Research shows that our mentoring works. Kids with a Big Brother or Big Sister show real differences in their personal and academic lives. They are:
• More confident in their schoolwork performance
|
| • Able to get along better with their families |
| • 52% less likely to skip school |
Charity Navigator, the country’s premier independent charity evaluator, has awarded Big Brothers Big Sisters of America a 4-star “exceptional” rating for outstanding fiscal management for the fifth consecutive year.
Donating will help to:
• Recruit new Big Brother and Big Sister volunteers
|
| • Cover the costs of background checks and insurance, while ensuring trained professionals match children to caring and responsible Bigs |
| • Offer one-on-one, ongoing supervision and support for every match |
| • Provide cultural and social activities to enrich the opportunities for children |
Your donation goes to our community. When you donate to Big Brothers Big Sisters, you directly support children in our community.
No matter how much you give, donating will improve the lives of young people in your community. Your donation will help them meet the challenges of growing up into happy, confident young adults.
