Who are Big Brothers and Big Sisters?
Big Brothers and Big Sisters are all kinds of people — from high school and college students to business people to retirees — who volunteer to spend time with children. Bigs sometimes spend as little as one hour each week with a child in need. Through this mentoring program, both child and adults share everyday experiences that enrich the lives of all involved.
