Independent research shows that our model of profes- sionally supported one-to-one relationships between kids and their Big Brothers and Big Sisters has a measurable, positive impact. Children in the program are less likely to skip school, begin using alcohol and illegal drugs, and be involved in violence.

  • 72% reported improved school performance.
  • 74% indicated their child showed more trust toward them.

Being a mentor doesn’t take a lot of time or money and you don’t have to be a super hero. What it does take, is a passion for kids and a willingness to have fun. If you want to transform the life of a child, please consider mentoring a child in your area. Help transform a life today!
