Big Brothers Big Sisters relies upon a wide range of support from companies and individuals, like employees of Garden Savings Federal Credit Union, above, to deliver quality mentoring to local children like Amir. When we first met him, Amir was a respectful child with a drive to get his own way; a loving, kind boy who needs a little time to grow up, his kindergarten teacher told us. She recommended Amir, who was growing up without his father, to Big Brothers Big Sisters and soon he was matched with Big Brother Tom. After 8 years together, Tom's a fixture in Amirs life. Theyve bonded over sports, particularly football. I watch all the Jets games with my Big Brother and his family, Amir told us, and its great time together for both of them. Tom capitalizes on making visits fun and constructive by weaving lessons about sportsmanship, attitude and life into game time. Amir's family is grateful for the role Tom plays in his life saying, Tom is the father figure Amir never had, and Amir is a better person because of him." Their friendship's important to Amir, too. Im a witness to the benefits of mentoring, he told us. Toms great, and hes really been there for me. If not for Big Brothers Big Sisters, I wouldnt have him in my life. Tom's friendship with Amir is special enough that he's been named 2014's National Big Brother of the Year. We want to bring the kind of transformative, positive influences Tom brings into Amir's life into the lives of more children in the 4 northern New Jersey counties we serve. With your help, we can do that.

Big Brothers Big Sisters believes every child is born with potential. Yet, one-third of the nation’s youth are growing up without a mentor who can help them overcome challenges such as poverty, unstable housing, absentee parents, and lack of access to educational resources. Since 1958, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County and the Inland Empire has provided youth facing adversity with professionally-supported, one-to-one mentoring relationships. We tackle society’s issues head-on by delivering prevention-based, solution-focused mentoring programs that provide pathways for disconnected youth to achieve their educational dreams and succeed in living wage careers. With a caring mentor in their corner, youth are able to strive for long-term success and achieve their full potential. Our 4,000 volunteers, 4,000 children and families, staff, board of directors, and donors have chosen to invest in the future of Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. Together, we empower youth. We inspire change. And we ignite potential. All through the power of mentoring.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern Maine provides children facing adversity with strong and enduring one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever. We serve children in Cumberland and York County and are one of over 300 BBBS agencies affiliated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. We believe every child has the inherent ability to succeed in life. Some children, however, need a little more help. A little more listening, a little more one-on-one attention, a little more involvement with positive role models...and that just what we provide. We make and support matches between adult and high school volunteers ("Bigs"​) and youth ("Littles"​) between the ages of 7 and 18. We provide training and support to every match. In just 18 months of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring, littles in our program are - more engaged in their schoolwork - have better relationships with family and friends - have a new perspective of what's possible It doesn't happen by itself. Both funding and volunteers are essential ingredients. BBBS relies totally on gifts from individuals, businesses, Foundations and partnership with the United Way to support the entire match process, from initial screening through professional ongoing match support. We can't do what we do without you!

Big Buddy is a charity that matches boys who do not have a father in their lives with positive male role models. We have an estimated 8000 boys in New Zealand without a father, and while mothers and grandmothers do a courageous job of raising them alone, boys learn more about being a man of good character by spending time with men who can set that example. Statistics and stories continue to show that the presence of a mentor in a boy’s life brings about increased confidence, happiness and general well-being. This enables him to make healthier life choices, in turn improving his family life, schooling and future relationships and job prospects. To achieve this, Big Buddy isn’t looking for saints – we simply ask for men with a little time and a kind heart who can show up in a boy’s life for 2-3 hours a week. This consistent commitment is important to our boys, many of whom have been repeatedly let down. It doesn’t so much matter what Big Buddies do with their Little Buddies - watching the footy, going for a drive, playing ball, catching fish – but it does matter that they are there.
