Be a BIG Deal!

BIGS & LITTLES refers to the mentoring relationship between one adult and one child. This is the platform on which the separate Big Brothers and Big Sisters organizations were founded in New York in 1904. The majority of our volunteers share their time with one child in a variety of activities. BGCBigs works with volunteer mentors (BIGS) to match them directly with children or youth (LITTLES) in ways that consider similar interests, geography and program type. 

 

Types of Big Brother Big Sister Matches
Bigs and Littles can be matched in a variety of ways.  While the traditional program matches men with boys and women with girls, this isn't the only way the relationships can be effective.  
 
Couples
Share time as a couple with a child who could really benefit from your friendship.  
 
Little Brothers with Big Sisters
For many reasons from convenience to circumstance, boys can enjoy a friendship with a female volunteer mentor.
