๐Ÿ‘• ARE YOU A MATCH? ๐Ÿ’š

Okayโ€ฆ weโ€™re kind of obsessed with these.

Our friends at Kara & Tara Creative Co. have created a special โ€œAre You A Match?โ€ shirt benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Jasper & Newton Counties!

The shirts are $24.99, come in several colors, and $5 from every shirt sold comes right back to our agency to help us create and support mentoring relationships for local kids.

And that message on the back? We hope it gets people asking questions. Because somewhere in Jasper or Newton County, there just might be a kid waiting for their match.

๐Ÿ’š Wear something cool.
๐Ÿ’š Support local kids.
๐Ÿ’š Help us create more matches.

Presale ends September 30!

๐Ÿ’š MATCH MONDAY! ๐Ÿ’š

Meet Big Brother Richie and Little Brother Kaden โ€” one of our newest matches! ๐ŸŽ‰

Today marks the beginning of a new friendship built around spending time together, trying new things, sharing some laughs, and simply getting to know one another.

The best part about a new match? You never quite know where the friendship will lead. It might start with a game, a meal, or a shared interest โ€” but over time, those ordinary moments can become the ones that matter most.

Weโ€™re excited to see whatโ€™s ahead for Richie and Kaden!

Please help us welcome this new match to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Jasper and Newton Counties family! ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’š CARTHAGE, LETโ€™S PAINT THE TOWN GREEN! ๐Ÿ’š

On Friday, September 18, weโ€™re asking our entire community to do something simple: WEAR GREEN!

Wear green to work.
Wear green to school.
Wear green at your business.
Wear green to lunch.
Wear green wherever your Friday takes you!

Why? Because we want to fill Carthage with green and show our support for kids who need positive, caring mentors in their lives through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Jasper and Newton Counties.

๐Ÿ“ธ And donโ€™t just wear itโ€”SHARE IT!

Snap a photo of yourself, your coworkers, your classroom, your family, or your whole team wearing green and share it on social media using:



Then challenge your friends and neighbors to do the same!

๐Ÿ’š One day. One community. One BIG difference.

Letโ€™s see just how GREEN we can make Carthage on September 18! ๐Ÿ’š

It is always exciting when a great partnership continues to grow.

Last week, we had a great meeting with Tara from Likeable Likeness photography and Courtney with Teed Entertainment. They were incredible partners for our Green Tie Gala, and we're excited to continue building on that partnership.

The conversation was full of ideas, shared passion for our community, and some exciting new projects that we can't wait to share in the future.

Thank you both for investing your time, your support, and your belief in the mission of Big Brothers BigSisters of Jasper and Newton Counties. We are grateful to have community partners like you who are committed to creating more life-changing moments for local kids.

Stay tuned... there's more to come!

๐Ÿ’š Sometimes showing up means going the extra mile. Literally.

Recently, circumstances outside of his control caused one of our Littles to move away from our immediate area.

His Big Brother could have understandably said, โ€œThatโ€™s just too far.โ€

He didnโ€™t.

A Little who once lived about 5 miles away is now nearly 50 miles away, but his Big is committed to continuing to show up.

That means more miles. More gas. More expense.

But it also means something much more important:

This Little gets to keep one consistent, caring adult in his corner during a time when consistency matters more than ever.

We want to make sure the additional cost of those miles doesn't become a barrier to this match continuing.

So we're asking our community to help us Fuel the Match.

Every gift, no matter the amount, will help with the additional transportation costs that come with keeping this Big and Little connected.

We won't share names, photos or details. Protecting the privacy of our Littles will always come first.

But we can tell you this:

There's a Big Brother willing to drive the extra miles to make sure his Little knows he hasn't been forgotten.

Let's help him keep showing up. ๐Ÿ’š
