EMPOWERING POTENTIAL

For more than 50 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Indiana has operated under the belief that every child inherently has the ability to succeed and thrive in life. We make meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers – our Bigs – and youth – our Littles – from ages 6 through 22. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people – particularly youth from disadvantaged socioeconomic demographics.
