Letter from the President, BBBS of America

Dear Supporter,

Every day, Big Brothers Big Sisters volunteers are making a real difference in the lives of more than 250,000 young people.  Every day, in your community and thousands of other communities across the country, Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring programs are helping children improve their academic performance, get along better with peers and family, and prepare for the future.

You know the impact of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring on the life of a child.  Just imagine how much better your schools could be, how much stronger your community, if every child at risk could have a Big Brother or a Big Sister!

More children than ever need the guidance of positive adult role models to help them overcome the challenges of growing up in America today.  We at Big Brothers Big Sisters are working hard to bring our programs to more of the children who need us most. Our work depends on the generosity of supporters like you who know the value of Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring and share our commitment to building a brighter future for our nation’s most vulnerable youth.

It all starts with you!  Your support can help us make a real difference in many more young lives.  Your gift will directly support the work of the Big Brothers Big Sisters serving your community.

Together we can change what it means to grow up in America.

Thank you,

Judy Vredenburgh
