Directions

Everyone can do something! Individuals, groups, families, and co-workers; the young and not so young, people with experience and skills, and people just starting out… There's an on-going or a one-time-only opportunity for everyone!

If you can find the time, we can find the need.

Big Brothers Big Sisters

Create wonderful memories for you and a child through Big Brothers Big Sisters. Boys and girls throughout Stanislaus County are waiting for you to share your time and experience. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are, foremost, friends to children -- they share everyday activities, a game of catch, movies, reading, hiking, shopping, talking, and more. Just include your Little Brothers or Little Sisters in the activities you enjoy! Being a Big Brother or Big Sister is something you can do. The only requirements are a willingness to make a friend and a desire to share some fun with a young person. Enrich your life while you spend a little time and make a big difference in the life of a child. BBBS provides opportunities for adults to create a fun and positive one-to-one friendship with a youth in Stanislaus, San Joaquin, and Merced Counties.
