Big Brothers Big Sisters of Family Services of Westchester

Looking for a way to make a difference in the community and have fun doing it?

Want to have a positive impact in the life of a local child?

Become a BIG mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters!

WHAT – Do you know an adult who would like to mentor a child 4-6 hours per month? Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) of Family Services of Westchester (FSW) have several dozen children waiting for a Big Brother or Big Sister! We are especially in need of male volunteers to match with our wait list of male mentees.

WHO – Our community based program involves matching adult volunteers with Westchester youth between the ages of 7-17.

WHY – Children with a Big Brother or Big Sister mentor are more likely to see their self-esteem skyrocket, more likely to improve academically, less likely to skip school, and less likely to start using drugs.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED – For more information, email us at denise.austin@fsw.org , call (914)937-3779 or visit our website at www.bigswestchester.org
