Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Inland Empire

Supporting a Child, Transforms a Child and Changes a Community. 

Big Brothers Big Sisters is the oldest and largest volunteer mentoring agency nationwide providing underserved, at-risk children with a strong enduring, professionally supported one-to-one mentoring relationship that changes their lives for the better, forever.

The Big Brothers Big Sisters Program has proven results reducing juvenile delinquency and gang involvement, offering at-risk children an alternative, positive future

Our mentoring model Starts Something BIG in the Life of a Child.

Here's the proof. National research has shown that positive relationships between Littles and their Bigs have a direct and measurable impact on children’s lives. By participating in our programs, Little Brothers and Sisters are:

• more confident in their schoolwork performance
• able to get along better with their families
• 46% less likely to begin using illegal drugs
• 27% less likely to begin using alcohol
• 52% less likely to skip school.

What if every child had a mentor?

If every child graduated High School?

Went on to college?

Grew up to have a job that supported a family? 

It would be the start of something BIG for that child, family and community!
