The Big Brothers Big Sisters Mission is to help children reach their potential through professionally supported, one-to-one relationships with mentors that have a  measurable impact on youth.  

The Big Brothers Big Sisters Vision is successful mentoring relationships for all children who need and want them, contributing to brighter futures, better schools, and stronger communities for all.

Our Mentoring Programs Work
National research has shown that positive relationships between youth and their Big Brothers and Big Sisters mentors have a direct and measurable impact on children's lives. By participating in our youth mentoring programs, Little Brothers and Sisters are:

• More confident in their schoolwork performance
• Able to get along better with their families
• 46% less likely to begin using illegal drugs
• 27% less likely to begin using alcohol
• 52% less likely to skip school.¹

It's an exciting time to get involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater St. Joseph.  We are now accepting volunteers and children in the program! Give us a call at 816.671.4090 or click on "Become a Big" if you are interested in being a BIG. We are looking forward to providing mentoring relationships for all of our community's children who need and want them, contributing to brighter futures, better schools, and a stronger community for all.
