How Your Money HelpsBBBS has been the nation's preeminent youth-service organization for nearly a century. Our service is based on our volunteers. We have a proven success in creating and nurturing relationships between adults and children. Each year, individuals and organizations donate money, goods, services, and their time to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Without these generous contributions, we would not be able to serve hundreds of thousands of children in 5,000 communities across the country. Our goal is to serve one million children by 2010. Your support brings us one step closer to reaching that goal. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are, foremost, friends to children: They share everyday activities, expand horizons, and experience the joy in even the simplest events. Within those little moments lies the big magic that a Big Brother or Big Sister brings to the life of a young person. Professionals in youth development support these individual, responsible relationships. Youth development experts agree that, in addition to their parents, children need additional supportive, caring adults in their lives. BBBS works closely with parents to match every child with the right Big Brother or Big Sister. Each potential Big is screened, trained, and supervised to help ensure that the relationship will be safe and rewarding for everyone involved. Your donation support will help us reach many more children and change more lives. Your support helps us pay for:
