Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Minnesota

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Minnesota believes that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. Our mission is to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one mentoring relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.

We provide service to over 600 children each year, and target those that need our services most including those living in single parent homes and growing up in poverty (65% of the children we served last year were from households below 200% of federal poverty guidelines). In addition, many of the children in our program have a developmental disability, mental health diagnosis, and/or struggle academically or socially.
