Big Brothers Big Sisters of Delaware
Organization Mission:
Our mission is to create and support mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. Our vision is for all of Delaware’s youth to achieve their full potential.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Delaware's vision is for all Delaware youth to achieve success. Youth enrolled in the program are connected with a mentoring relationship with positive role models. Many of our at-risk youth do not have consistent positive role models, this is where our agency steps in.
We love sharing our success stories with the community and nothing is better than direct testimonials.
Sheila’s Story
When my son Justin was 8, he was matched to a big brother named Luke. The two of them were so alike, it sometimes gave me a glimpse of what my son would be like as a grown-up. After being matched for about 10 months Luke had to move. Justin and Luke have kept in touch over the years and Justin has even been able to visit Luke on occasion.
One day Justin and I were playing a game of – if we won the lottery and could go anywhere in the world where would that be – I said, New York. Of all the places in the world he could visit, my son only wanted to go to be with his former Big Brother.
I am so very thankful for Big Brothers Big Sisters!
