    Bigs & Littles Mentorship Program Is Now Accepting Mentee Applications

    Bigs & Littles Mentorship Program Is Now Accepting Mentee Applications

    The mentoring model has shown real results including 100% of kids involved graduating high school and matriculating to college or a training program.

    By Community News - Manhattan

    In Bigs & Littles NYC’s keystone mentoring program, youth ages 7-19 are carefully matched with a Big Sister or Big Brother who serves as an adviser, role model, and adult friend. Mentoring matches meet twice monthly for activities such as enjoying a show or ballgame, working together on a service project, or spending time talking and exploring NYC.

    Matches are supported by life skills programming, crisis intervention, family support, and referral assistance as well as a dedicated Professional Program Manager to oversee and guide the match relationship. This mentoring model has been the core of Bigs & Littles NYC Mentoring mission for over a century. Our goal is for all young people to be empowered to recognize, reach for and achieve their full potential.



    We know the program works: 100% of our kids avoid pregnancy, 100% avoid arrest, 93% are promoted to the next grade, 100% graduate High School and 100% matriculate into college or a training program.

    You can apply online to match your child with a mentor today!
