Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeast Idaho is a private,
non-profit, youth development agency, established in the mid 1970's and
subsequently affiliated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America in
1989. Our Mission is to provide children and youth an opportunity to
become confident, competent, and caring individuals through stable
relationships with adult role models. "In
our own lives, each of us was touched by someone - other than our
parents - who broadened our horizons and brought a little magic into
our lives. By becoming a Big Brother or Big Sister, you can do the same
for a child. And you will BOTH be forever changed by the experience."
We recruit, screen, train and match adult volunteers with children, 6-12 years of age, that live primarily in single parent families. Our service area covers Jefferson, Bonneville and Bannock counties. Our main office is located in Idaho Falls, Idaho; Bannock County youth are served through our Pocatello branch office. |
