Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Ozarks is a mentoring organization, focusing on serving children facing adversity in our local community.
Since 1904, Big Brothers Big Sisters has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is incredible potential. 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 5 through young adulthood. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
If direct mentoring is not for you, we also have other ways to give your time or money to our vision that: All youth achieve their full potential.
