How it Works

"My Big Brother makes me laugh; he tells me I can be anything I want to be."

Community-based mentoring is the traditional Big Brothers Big Sisters relationship, where Bigs and Littles get together on their own to share fun activities they both enjoy. Matches typically meet for one hour a week.

Getting together is a great time for both the Big and the Little. It doesn’t require a special occasion or expensive activities; just a few hours every month to share the simple things you already like to do. Things like….

Shooting hoops
Playing a board game
Sharing a pizza
Taking a walk in the park
Or just hanging out and talking.

Mayor Donnalee Lozeau became Brandi’s Big Sister January 2006 in our site-based program where Donnalee had lunch with her Little Sister once a week in her elementary school. This paved the way for a great friendship and soon after being matched, both agreed to transition into the community program so that they could spend more quality time together having fun!

This match is one that will last, for the bonds of friendship are strong!
