Changing Perspectives. Changing Lives.

 

At Big Brothers Big Sisters, our staff is dedicated to improving and changing the lives of children in Salina County for the better. We take our responsibility of creating life-changing friendships seriously and our number one priority is the safety and well being of the children in our program. Our staff is professionally trained and works together to deliver the best quality of service possible for children, volunteers, families and the community. Our professionals match Littles to Bigs, support these safe relationships with skill and compassion, and pave the way for lifelong friendships that create lifetime memories.

Since 1968, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Salina, Inc. has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. 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 18, in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.
