Our Ripple: Big Brothers, Big Sisters of York and Adams Counties

For more than 100 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters has believed that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. As the nation’s largest donor and volunteer-supported mentoring network, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (Bigs) and children (Littles), ages 6 through 18, in communities across the country. They develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people. Here’s why we do it. In 2019, of all children in Big Brothers Big Sisters’ programs…

  • 95% did better in school
  • 96% went to class
  • 88% were respectful
  • 73% read at grade level
  • 98% graduated or were on track to go to the next grade level
  • 97% regularly spent time with their Bigs

Our contribution makes a difference.
