Since 1904, Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) has worked to match kids from age five through young adulthood with a mentor in hopes to develop positive relationships that have a lasting effect on young lives, according to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of America website.
“Our one-to-one mentoring relationships support the critical social and emotional development needed to help build resilience and promote the mental health and well-being of thousands of children we serve across America,” a BBBS spokesperson said on their website. “Now more than ever, Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies across the country are stepping up to find innovative ways in serving our communities.”
