Who Are Big Brothers Big Sisters Alumni?
Big Brothers Big Sisters Alumnus are men and women who
believe that every child in Canada who needs a mentor has a mentor.
Big Brothers Big Sisters Alumni Vision
We are committed
to the well being of Canada’s children. Through the years we have acted on this belief by serving as Big Brothers, Big
Sisters, board members, committee members and employees. We have also participated in Big Brothers Big Sisters as child participants,
parents and guardians.
As Big Brothers Big Sisters Alumni we have observed, first hand, the life
changing impact that a caring adult mentor can have on the life of a child. We know that a child with a mentor is more likely
to attend school and is far more likely to graduate. Children with adult support are less likely to use drugs, or be involved
in violent activity.
As members of Big Brothers Big Sisters Alumni we share a compelling vision.
We believe the day must come when every child in Canada who needs a mentor has a mentor.
We invite Canadian women and men, who are either currently active or have
participated in the past with Big Brothers Big Sisters, to join us in realizing our vision. BBBS Alumnus can share stories,
can share community contacts or simply champion the well being of Canada’s children. Through many small acts of kindness
and generosity, BBBS Alumni will rally co-workers, volunteer in new mentoring programs and, when possible, contribute financially.
Together, we will bring about the day when every child in Canada who needs a mentor has a mentor. Canadian girls and boys
deserve no less.
