Big Brothers
Big Sisters of Snohomish County is a branch of the YMCA. While
the office is in Everett, BBBS programs stretch from Edmonds
through Everett as far North as Arlington, and farther East
than Monroe.
For
over twenty years now, Big Brothers and Sisters have put a
name and face to answering the community's need. They have
come from many walks of life- mill workers, small business
owners, educators, corporate executives, and aerospace employees,
among others, all found within themselves the spirit to reach
out to a child.
The
personal investment for a child's highest potential is the
important gem of Time, Treasure, and Talent. The volunteers
make their own time, may pay their own theatre admission,
and utilize their expertise to help achieve this higher community
goal. Their only payment: our appreciation of healthier, more
stable, and positive kids.
MISSION:
"Big Brothers Big Sisters of Snohomish County creates
quality one-to-one mentoring relationships which will help
children to achieve their highest potential."
What the agency
does: Help these children reach their highest potential through
professionally supported, one-to-one relationships. Highly
screened volunteers and children are matched to form a friendship
that brings something to both the Big and Little: magic.
A
water-balloon fight lasts only moments...but the magic of
a Big Brother or Big Sister will last a lifetime!
