What we do is nice. What we achieve is necessary. And so are you!

To do our work, and to make a positive impact on the lives of thousands of children, Big Brothers Big Sisters relies on funding

from individuals, foundations, and corporations. This investment in our work and our programs makes it possible for us to provide Bigs to children in our region.

And we know children need Bigs. It isn’t easy being a kid these days. In these complex and confusing times, children need a caring adult to be a mentor and a friend — someone they can talk to, have fun with, and learn from.

Research shows that our mentoring works.

Kids with a Big Brother or Big Sister show real differences in their personal and academic lives. They are:

  • More confident in their schoolwork performance
  • Able to get along better with their families
  • 52% less likely to skip school

Your donation goes to children in our community.  Donate to Big Brother Big Sisters SEPA

When you make a gift to Big Brothers Big Sisters Southeastern PA, you directly support children in Chester, Delaware, Philadelphia and Montgomery counties.

Your donation will be used to:

  • Help us recruit and enroll new Big Brother and Big Sister volunteers
  • Cover the costs of background checks and insurance, in order to ensure that our trained professionals match children to caring and responsible Bigs
  • Offer one-to-one, ongoing supervision and support for every match
  • Provide cultural and social activities to enrich the opportunities for children

 

No matter how much you give, your contribution will improve the lives of young people in local neighborhoods. Your donation will help keep them in school and away from violence and drug and alcohol abuse.
