For almost 40 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwestern Illinois (BBBSIL) has operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. As an affiliate of the nation's largest donor and volunteer supported mentoring network, BBBSIL makes meaningful and monitored matches between adult volunteers (Bigs) and child (Littles) ages 6 through 18. Our vision is that all children achieve success in life. We are focused on providing children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one to one mentoring relationships that change their lives for the better, forever. We partner with parents/guardians, volunteers and others in the community and hold ourselves accountable for each child in our program achieving three goals: 1) higher aspirations, greater confidence and better relationships; 2) avoidance of risky behaviors and; 3) educational success.
