About Us

Our Organization

BBBS helps children realize their potential and build their futures. We nurture children and strengthen communities. We couldn’t do any of it without you!

Changing Perspectives. Changing Lives.

For more than 100 years, BBBS has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is incredible potential. As part of the nation’s largest donor- and volunteer-supported mentoring network, BBBS makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”) ages 6 and up. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
