Big Brothers Big Sisters is a program which is based on the simple and powerful friendship. It provides friendship and fun by matching easily hurt young people(age 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a helpful friend.
Volunteers come from all parts of life --- married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters do not just take the place of parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.
A Big Sister and Little Sister will usually spend one hour, and three times a month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, doing sports or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop self-respect, confidence and life goal.
Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations can be found throughout the world. It is the largest and most well-known provider of tutor services and has been operating for 25 years.

Big Brothers Big Sisters is a program which is based on the simple and powerful friendship. It provides friendship and fun by matching easily hurt young people(age 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a helpful friend.
Volunteers come from all parts of life --- married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters do not just take the place of parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.
A Big Sister and Little Sister will usually spend one hour, and three times a month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, doing sports or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop self-respect, confidence and life goal.
Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations can be found throughout the world. It is the largest and most well-known provider of tutor services and has been operating for 25 years.
Emily and Sarah have been matched since 2008. Emily is a 15-year-old girl who has experienced some difficulties by her schoolmates at school. "I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me."
Emily's mum came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be good to Emily by providing different information about herself other than just depending on schoolmates to judge her self-worth.
Sarah wanted to join in a volunteer program. "From the Internet, I found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to enjoy making time to do something because sometimes it is all work and no play."
Big Brothers Big Sisters has been useful and enjoyable to both Emily and Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the relationship has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being the wonderful and happy girl she is!
