Our program is an essential service we must continue to provide to youth through this pandemic, but we need investment in our mission and capacity to ensure our agency remain open.

Big Brothers Big Sisters has been providing one-to-one mentoring relationships to Flint and Genesee County youth since 1944. Big Brothers Big Sisters values the partnerships with our parents/ caregivers, volunteers and others in the community and hold ourselves accountable for each child in our program achieving: higher aspirations, greater confidence and better relationships; avoidance of risky behaviors; and educational success.

The future of Big Brothers Big Sisters depends on our ability to raise resources during this time of social distancing. We have postponed our golf fundraiser and are looking to fill the financial shortfall of $70,000. We are depending on you to help us defend the potential of youth and families that prior to COVID-19 already lived stressful lives. We have reinvented how we do business and our programs are alive and well. We continue to ignite the power and promise of youth! Please donate now.
