Donating pays dividends.

Research shows that our mentoring works. Children (Littles) with a Big Brother, Big Sister, Big Couple or school-based mentor show significant strides in their personal and academic lives. They are more confident in their schoolwork performance, they get along better with their families and they are 52% less likely to skip school.

Your support goes far. 

Your financial support helps us provide our programs and services in the Southern Arizona metro area, so we can develop more high school and college graduates, community leaders and entrepreneurs. Nearly 80% of every dollar you give goes directly to making and supporting Matches between Littles and Bigs.

Big Brothers Big Sisters is a Better Business Bureau Accredited Charity in the BBB Wise Giving Alliance and a Platinum Level GuideStar participant, with demonstrated commitment to transparency. This means you can rest assured that we are using donations wisely.

Your tax-deductible gift supports: 

• Recruiting new Big Brother, Big Sister and Big Couple volunteers.
• Covering the costs of background and driving record checks, while ensuring our trained professional case managers match Littles to responsible Bigs (volunteer mentors).
• Enabling ongoing professional supervision and relationship support for every Big and Little Match.
• Providing cultural and social activities to enrich opportunities for children.
• Providing community referral services to families and youth.
