Thank you to our Funders

Each volunteer that offers to work with a child through our agency is carefully screened and evaluated for the safety of the children. Thorough background checks are done, along with interviewing and training. Children are also given safety training, and go through an interview process, along with their families, to ensure that each match is set up to be successful. Matches are then monitored closely to ensure its success, and the safety and well being of the child. A fully trained Case Worker is on staff to conduct this work. National Standards are followed throughout the process. This level of care and concern costs money. Each match costs approximately $2500.00 a year to set up and monitor. Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies are NOT government funded. We rely solely on community support to do this important work.

Please join me in celebrating those organizations that have helped fund our agency so far in 2009 through major gifts and grants. Many private individuals have also made contributions, and for privacy reasons are not listed below.

We are a registered charity that can provide tax receipts. If you wish to make a gift of cash, stocks, life insurance, or a bequest, please contact Jennifer Miller, Executive Director for more information.
