For 96 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) Greater Dallas has been developing positive, meaningful relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people here in North Texas. At the center of our mission is one-to-one mentoring, with each mentor ("Big") spending time with his or her mentee ("Little") through one of the three primary programs: Community-Based, School/Site-Based, and Mentor2.0.
We're asking you to "have a heart" and help our team to raise $15,000, or more, in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring program.
It costs over $1,200 to start and sustain a BBBS match. This includes everything from background checks and safety training to ongoing match support to ensure the success of each mentoring relationship. BBBS aims to serve over 2,000 children in North Texas this year alone. Your gift will ensure BBBS can match as many children on its waitlist as possible to achieve this goal. And, every dollar raised this year will be matched up to $75,000.
