EVERY MOMENT COUNTS.
For more than 50 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Upstate has been IGNITING, INSPIRING, and DEFENDING the potential of youth in the Upstate. We believe that every child has the potential to succeed and thrive in life. As a member agency of the oldest and largest youth mentoring organization in the United States, we make meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), across the Upstate.
Big Brothers Big Sisters has a mission of creating and supporting meaningful one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and potential of youth. Our vision is that all youth are able to reach their full potential.
WE ARE BUILDING A STRONGER COMMUNITY THROUGH OUR YOUTH
WE COULDN’T DO ANY OF IT WITHOUT YOU.
WILL YOU JOIN US? HERE’S HOW:
Just a little time can make a Big impact. It only takes six hours a month in our Community Program or one hour, once a week in our School Program. Volunteer today!
Be a one-time donor to help pay for volunteer screening and background checks, ongoing match support, and training bigs in child safety and effective mentorship.
Be a Match Maker and give ongoing support to BBBS Upstate. Your monthly gift will help sustain the program and continue providing quality one-to-one mentoring relationships for years to come.
NO DONATION IS TOO SMALL. EITHER WAY, YOU’LL HELP INTRODUCE A WAITING LITTLE TO THE BIG BROTHER OR BIG SISTER!
The cost of match outings is 100% up to our volunteer Bigs. If you have tickets to an event that will go unused or a business that can give a one-time or recurring activity, donate them to BBBS Upstate. We’ll offer them to our matches. This will help our Littles and Bigs bond and grow their relationship into a longer and stronger Match.
Big Brothers Big Sisters receives 75% of our funding from private donations. Every dollar you donate directly impacts the life of a child.
