Be a part of
something big

It’s not just a donation. It’s an investment in a child’s future.

When you donate online to Big Brothers Big Sisters, you join our cause and directly support children in the Monroe, Owen and Putnam county communities. No matter how little or big the amount, donating can start making a difference in the lives of young people around you.

Donating pays dividends.

Research shows that our mentoring works. Children with a Big Brother or Big Sister show real differences in their personal and academic lives. They are more confident in their schoolwork performance, they get along better with their families and they’re 52% less likely to skip school.¹

Your support goes far.

 Our staff members hold themselves accountable to the highest standards and strive for the strongest outcomes for the children we serve.  Our agency was one of only seventeen nationwide to reach all the major benchmarks set by Big Brothers Big Sisters of America.

• 89% of the children enrolled in one of our programs expect to complete high school and go on to college.
• 43% of the children enrolled in one of our programs improved their grades.
• 71% report that they have better relationships with their peers.
  

Your financial support starts lots of things, like:

• recruiting new Big Brother and Big Sister volunteers
• covering the costs of background checks, while ensuring trained professionals match Littles to responsible Bigs
• enabling ongoing supervision and relationship support for every Big, Little and Little’s family
• providing cultural and social activities to enrich the opportunities for children
