About Big Brothers Big Sisters Of Northern Nevada, Inc
Transforming children's perspective to insure their future success, through one to one mentoring. Volunteers and donors have huge impact.
Children who are living in poverty and in a fractured family are at high risk for staying in poverty and social problems such as high school dropout. Throught the attention of a volunteer Big Brother or Big Sister mentor, the child begins to realize her or his own potential, leading to:
~ Improved Academic attitudes
~ Improved Academic performance
~ Improved sense of the future
~ Less likely to initiate drugs and alcohol
~ More likely to graduate from high school
~ More likely to graduate from a 4 year college
~ Improved school attendance
~ Less likely to use violence to solve conflicts
~Improved relationships with family and other adults.
Donors and volunteers contribute to the transforming change in the children's lives. Everyone in our community can help in some way.
