    Mission
    Create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.

    Vision
    All youth achieve their full potential.

    For more than 60 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, professionally supported matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), ages 6 through 18, in Maricopa County and Pinal County. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people. Please consider being a volunteer mentor or making a gift to help children in our community who need and deserve mentors build self-confidence and realize their potential.

    -Higher aspirations, greater confidence and better relationships
    -Avoidance of risky behaviors
    -Educational success
