Think back to when you were a
child. Who was that person,
other than your parent who
brought a little magic into your
life just by being there? By
becoming a Big Brother or a Big
Sister you can be that person in
the life of a child. And you
will build treasured memories
through a friendship that will
change your life, and a child's
life forever. Discover
spontaneous, small moments of
shared fun, creating BIG
memories that last a lifetime.
Being a Big is something anyone
can do — the only requirements
are a willingness to be a
friend, to have fun, and to see
the world (and yourself) through
the eyes of a young person. Most
Bigs are adults of any age, but
we also have programs for high
school and college students.
As a
Big, you and your Little will do
everyday activities like playing
sports, seeing a movie, cooking,
going over schoolwork, visiting
a museum, washing the car,
taking a walk, volunteering in
their community, or just hanging
out. And as in any friendship,
it is the spontaneous, small
moments of shared fun or
discovery that you will remember
forever. That is the magic a Big
brings to the life of a
child-and that a Little brings
to the life of a Big.
