At work (aka Big Brothers Big Sisters), I usually say that ultimate frisbee is my life outside of work. You could also say that Club BBBSCI is my life outside of frisbee.

8 years in working/interning for BBBSCI, 6 years matched with my Little Sis Trinity!

When you've had the chance to stay with and be as engaged with a workplace like this, BBBSCI becomes a part of who you are. And, that's not a bad thing, especially when your work cares so deeply for people.

People and relationships make the world run. People and relationships create the best and worst feelings. BBBSCI is all about people - trying to connect two people who might not have had the chance to meet before to provide support and love to kids and adults alike.

And, I'm so grateful for my people who are there for me through thick and thin.

900+ mentoring relationships in the BBBSCI program annually

300 young people connected & referred to other youth-supporting programming

150 youth supported through group mentoring

15 LITTLE MEMORIES – This year, your support does all this and creates some BIG magic! Every challenge achieved on Giving Tuesday unlocks a little memory for 15 lucky matches! These memories are bucket list opportunities for Bigs and Littles, made possible by generous supporters like YOU.
