Description
Founded in 1904, Big Brothers Big Sisters is the oldest and largest youth mentoring organization in the US. The organization serves more than 225,000 youth ages 5-15 in all 50 states. Since 1969, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle TN has affected the lives of thousands of our community’s children. Our mission is to help children reach their potential through professionally supported, supervised, one-to-one relationships with measurable impact. The children are evaluated to measure their progress in developing Confidence, Competence and Caring. Through this careful supervision, we know that the children in our program have increased self-confidence, show improvement in school performance, and have better relationships with their families. Little Brothers and Sisters are also less likely to begin using drugs, consume alcohol, skip school, or engage in acts of violence. Certainly these attributes benefit the entire community.
