Changing Perspectives. Changing Lives!

For more than 65 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Midlands has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. As a donor and volunteer supported organization, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers and youth, ages 7 through 21, throughout the Lincoln, Omaha and Council Bluffs metro areas. We develop positive friendships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.

Community Based Mentoring

Community-Based Mentoring is the traditional mentoring program provided by BBBSM. Bigs and Littles participate in one-to-one outings across our local community two to four times a month. Matches plan time together doing things that they both enjoy, like taking a walk in the park, going to a museum, sharing a meal together or just hanging out and talking at home. Life-changing friendships are built through the simplest of moments spent together.
