Volunteer

Become a Big Brother or Sister

Big Brothers Big Sisters matches children ("Littles") ages 6 through 18 with volunteer mentors ("Bigs") in professionally supported relationships ("Matches").  Matches meet two to four times per month for at least 12 months in one of our programs.

The Programs
Matches come together through our two essential programs:

Community-Based
 This program offers Bigs the opportunity to meet with their Little for a few hours each month at times that are convenient for both of them.  Matches can plan activities that they'll both enjoy like playing sports, watching movies or just hanging out.

School-Based
 Bigs meet with their Little at an elementary school for about an hour each week during the school year, and meet along side other Bigs and Littles to play games, tutor or just talk.
