I have been a mentor for about 10 years now. Throughout my time with Big Brother Big Sister, I have always felt supported by the program. The littles get a lot from it and the program is constantly improving to meet the needs of the children. It is truly a great program to be apart of.

Have been a big mentor for a little over 2 years now. The support, tools and encouragement BBBSLI provides is wonderful, the entire support team is amazing. My time spent with my little is truly priceless and the impact is so rewarding for us both.

OMG..just experienced quite a holiday dilemma when my son, being thoughtful and generous, managed to drop off all of his gifts prior to his actual arrival for the family party, and I had foolishly scheduled a BBSLI pick up for same day.. I'm sure you can figure out the rest of the story! My son was naturally pretty upset, as he is a very caring guy..We called BBSLI and left messages, but to no avail, as the center had already closed for the day..Well, first thing Monday morning, BBSLI calls us (John)and asks what we were missing etc ...and then manages to locate the items (From a HUGE warehouse filled with hundreds of bags of donations) and then called to let us know that the items were safe and sound..husband just picked up the gifts from BBSLI. We could not be more grateful to this organization. This was the best Xmas/hannukah gift EVER..thank you, BBSLI , from the bottom of our hearts!!!!!
