Little brothers are young boys, generally between the ages of 6 & 12, who could really use a friend like you. These
little guys look forward to meeting their Big Brothers and patiently await their first meeting.
Making the right match
between a Big and Little Brother is a very important part of this friendship process. All prospective volunteers are carefully
interviewed, and a thorough inquiry is done to ensure that they are reliable, caring adults. We get to know the Little's and
the Big's likes and dislikes, interests, age and personality.
After the successful match is made, your Program Director
from Big Brothers Big Sisters will stay in touch to provide any help they can while Bigs and Littles establish their friendship.
In just a few hours a week, for a minimum of one year, you may create a friendship that lasts a lifetime! The rewards are
something that money just can't buy. A smile, a laugh, a fun afternoon at French Fort Cove
- all because you choose to become a friend. Our studies have shown that a Big Brother can even increase a Little Brother's
chance of doing well in school. That's something you can both take pride in. You see, being a Big Brother is simply about
being a friend to a Little Brother. It's about laughing, playing, dreaming and just plain old being there when he needs a
helping hand.
You don’t
have to change your life to become a Big Brother… having a Little Brother just means you have someone else to share
your life with!
