Big Brothers Big Sisters helps children realize their potential and build their futures. We nurture children and strengthen communities. And we couldn't do any of it without you.

History

Changing Perspectives. Changing Lives.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of NWGA Mountains has been serving northwest Georgia since 1969.  Our organization has a rich history built on a national heritage of more than 100 years old. Big Brothers Big Sisters has always operated under the belief that inherent in every child is the ability to succeed and thrive in life. As the nation’s largest donor- and volunteer-supported mentoring network, Big Brothers Big Sisters makes meaningful, monitored matches between adult volunteers (“Bigs”) and children (“Littles”), ages 4 through 18, in communities across the country. We develop positive relationships that have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of young people.

Accountability Statement
