It's time to lace up! We need to 'strike it BIG' for youth facing adversity, while supporting an initiative that brings some fun, team building and interaction to our community.
WHY PARTICIPATE OR DONATE?
We are facing the highest waitlist in our history with more than 190 kids waiting for a Big. Our local agency has no guaranteed funding. The funds raised through this event are crucial to our ability to meet the growing demand for mentorship. Every dollar helps us connect more youth in developmental relationships. It's also an opportunity for local companies and groups to participate in a fun activity for a good cause and have a lot of fun while doing it.
WHO BENEFITS?
BBBS serves over 400 young people who face adversity AND are in need of an additional consistent and supportive Developmental Relationship. A high number of the youth in our programs are facing 4-6 childhood adversities in their family like mental health concerns, living in unsafe neighbours, exposure to financial stress and parental separation. Research has proven that mentored youth receive tangible impacts from being involved in a consistent, ongoing developmental relationship that a mentor can provide. Our programs promote healthy development in childhood, and create a foundation for improved school achievement, economic productivity, and responsible citizenship.
