Sponsor the recruitment of new mentors for a year. 70% of requests for a Big come from single parents of boys, but only 40% of mentors are men. Help us recruit the mentors we need through media, events, corporate lunch & learns, and more.
Sponsor a training opportunity for 30 Bigs. Training of Bigs goes beyond initial orientation. Big Brothers Big Sisters provides training on LGBTQ+ inclusivity, fact vs. value based decision making and current trends in drug and alcohol use.
Sponsor the first year of coaching for a Match. Each Match receives professional support from our staff, including monthly check-ins, coaching and training. This adds up to 32 hours of coaching per match during their first year.
Sponsor the costs of ten background checks for potential mentors. Child safety is the first factor in matching Bigs & Littles and is key to ensure we clear the path to a child's brightest future. Each potential Big has an extensive, layered background check completed prior to their interview.
