FUND A FRIENDSHIP
ABOUT BBBS
At Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Texas, we’ve been impacting the lives of children for more than 47 years by pairing children ages 6-16 with caring, adult mentors in Travis, Williamson and Hays counties. By supporting positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people, we work to strengthen each child’s ability to succeed and thrive in life.
FUND A FRIENDSHIP
It costs $1,250 to fund a life-changing mentoring relationship for a child for a year. There are still hundreds of children on our waiting list who are looking for the opportunity to be matched with a mentor of their own. Your Fund A Friendship gift provides kids like these with the one-to-one support they need to succeed in life.
WHY? HERE’S WHAT THE KIDS SAY:
“I want a Big Brother to go places with and have fun. He would be my best friend and I wouldn’t be lonely.”
“I want someone to be my friend. Someone I can talk to and can help me when I have problems.”
“I want to have a good life. I want a Big Sister to help me succeed.”
Your 100% tax-deductible Fund A Friendship gift can change a child’s life for the better, forever. Give now.
