Big Brothers Big Sisters is the premier one-to-one mentoring program in Beaver County. Research shows that when matched with a caring Big volunteer, Littles do better in school, make healthier choices, have higher self-esteem, and get along better with peers and family members.
MISSION
Create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.
SAFETY
Child safety is Big Brothers Big Sisters’ highest priority. To achieve the highest standards possible, we work constantly to review and strengthen our background check systems as new best practices in the industry emerge. We also make sure our Bigs and our staff have the training and resources they need to help Littles on their path to success.
BE A BIG
Becoming a Big Brother, Big Sister or Big Couple could change a child’s life for the better, forever. We always have “Littles” waiting to be matched. “Bigs” must be over 18 years old, complete the application and screening process, and be willing to spend at least 4 hours per month with their “Little.” Training is provided.
